BIOL 2160 : BIOL 2160 Exam 3 PPT 5
Document Summary
*these drop off right before we started talking about the madonna and child w/saints altarpiece, unfortunately. Column framing" represents a window" through which we can look, into the world" of the past. Frontal orientation (ie, of jesus) is unnatural/unexpected in this type of painting, so therefore it"s exponentially more powerful. Split of trees (jesus is the apex), shows the transition from his death to his rebirth. Perspective of framing architecture" is foreshortened/matches the eye level of the viewer, but it doesn"t line up with the perspective of the world we"re looking through to.
