    As expressed in Document A, from Theodore Rabb’s Basic Books, The Last Days of the Renaissance & The March to Modernity, “The clearest evidence of the break with medieval culture comes from the visual arts”. The Middle Ages had an emphasis on religious figures and symbolism. The two images contained Document A included: Madonna Enthroned Between two Angels by Duccio di Buonisegna from the late 13th century as well as Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci, from the early 16th century; upon further observation the conclusion can be made that not only was the art from the Middle Ages focused mostly on religious subject, but it also had two-dimensional lifeless figures and drab colors, as expressed in the painting. This great contrast is clear because the Renaissance painting is the complete opposite, possessing realistic figures which were true to form and three dimensional, vibrant landscapes, with a focus on the individual.

    I would prefer the Last Supper presentation by Veronese. This is because of the artistic skills he applies in his painting. He paints a tall figure of Christ at the center and the people surrounding him seem to be conversing and interacting with each other. His setting of a banquet scene also makes his presentation more appealing. I would have sided with Veronese concerning the issue of artistic freedom because each and every individual should be allowed to show his artistic skills by printing anything he feels like as long as the art in his work comes out.
