Section 12a: Early Renaissance
(Outside Italy) (p.
305-318)
How did Humanists affect the style of painting beginning in
the Renaissance? Describe and explain the story behind Van Eyck's
Arnolfini and His Wife. Before the 15th century, how did most women learn to become
artists? What type of art did they often specialize in? Explain in your own words how the people in Early
Renaissance painting are much more evolved than in Gothic. Why are there so few royal tapestries left from the Early
Renaissance today? How is a woodcut print different from an engraving (or
intaglio) method?
The Merode Altarpiece is a classic example of the "steep perspective"
used by Northern Renaissance painters. What do you think this means?
