Landscape with Fishermen - Crescenzio Onofri 

# data[].attributes.body
The Landscape with Fishermen is an Italian Renaissance oil painting by Crescenzio Onofri thought to have been created between the years 1670 to 1712 in Florence, Italy.

The notable differences between the Italian and Northern styles of Renaissance art comes down to a few key characteristics. Italian Renaissance artworks tend to include realistic depictions of natural settings and human figures as inspired by classical ideals. An example of this is shown above as the natural background uses atmospheric perspective to create the illusion of a three-dimensional space. The fisherman shown in the foreground is also depicted with significant musculature, which was typical of classical human figures. Northern Renaissance, like the Italian Renaissance, contained naturalistic depictions but did so using surface realism in common everyday settings. Northern Renaissance is also said to have adopted the engraving process as a popular medium for artmaking.

# data[].attributes.body
Carlo Cirvelli painted Saint Catherine of Alexandria in 1476 C.E. as one part of two elaborate altarpieces that he had created for the small church of San Domenico, founded in the town of Ascoli Piceno that was located inside the Italian Marche. This piece has relevant Italian Renaissance characteristics seen within the way Catherine is depicted with a heavy emphasis on her physical beauty and physical perfection, from her silky blonde hair to her bejeweled crown, represent just how beloved she was throughout the church this piece was created for and for the christian faith as she was also known to have been an Christian saint and as a martyr that defended Christian faith against pagans. Cirvelli also depicts a mastery of foreshortening (a technique of creating the illusion of projection within objects so they then seem to extend into space) within this piece, although it is out of view just below my provided imagine, Crivelli depicts a spiked wheel that is represented in an acute angle that outline his mastery of foreshortening and further solidified both of his role in the Italian Renaissance and personal style as a newfound Italian Renaissance artist.

The Descent from the Cross is a panel painting by the Flemish artist Rogier van der Weyden created c. 1435, now in the Museo del Prado, Madrid. The crucified Christ is lowered from the cross, his lifeless body held by Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus.

Descent from the Cross occupies the middle panel of Rubens's triptych. The figures are organized along a diagonal line that traces Jesus' slumped body. The triptych shows off the skills Rubens learned in Italy. The dramatic twisting and muscular composition of the figures give movement and physicality to the painting.

The emotional impact of the weeping mourners grieving over Christ's body, and the subtle depiction of space in van der Weyden's work have generated extensive critical comments, one of the most famous being, that of Erwin Panofsky: "It may be said that the painted tear, a shining pearl born of the strongest emotion

Mannerism was a style in art that emerged in the late Renaissance period, particularly during the late 16th century. It is characterized by a departure from the naturalistic representation of the High Renaissance towards a more stylized and exaggerated approach. While it's challenging to attribute the development of Mannerism to a single individual, it emerged as a reaction against the harmony and balance of High Renaissance art, particularly associated with artists such as Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and Raphael.

For the Italian Renaissance work, I choose "The Last Supper" by Leonardo da Vinci, created between 1495-1498 in Milan, Italy.

For the Northern Renaissance work, I choose "The Garden of Earthly Delights" by Hieronymus Bosch, created between 1490-1510 in the Netherlands.

to begin the comparison between both artworks id like to begin with Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper" is a fresco painting depicting the scene of Jesus Christ's last supper with his disciples. The work showcases da Vinci's mastery of perspective and human anatomy, with a focus on naturalism and realism in his portrayal of the figures. The composition is symmetrical, and the use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and three-dimensionality. for instance, I can tell "The Last Supper" is the work of an Italian Renaissance artist because of its focus on humanism, perspective, and naturalism. The attention to detail, the portrayal of emotions, and the use of light and shadow are characteristic of Italian Renaissance art.

secondly, is the artwork known as Hieronymus Bosch's "The Garden of Earthly Delights" which is a triptych painting that depicts various scenes, including the Garden of Eden, the earthly delights, and hell. Bosch's work is known for its surreal and fantastical elements, filled with symbolism and intricate details. The artist's depiction of fantastical creatures and symbolic imagery reflects the Northern Renaissance's interest in moral and religious themes. for example,

I can tell "The Garden of Earthly Delights" is the work of a Northern Renaissance artist because of its emphasis on symbolism, moral messages, and intricate details. The fantastical elements and the exploration of moral and religious themes are typical of Northern Renaissance art.

nonetheless, Both artworks reflect the artistic trends and innovations of their respective Renaissance periods, but they also showcase distinct characteristics that differentiate Italian Renaissance art from Northern Renaissance art.

The last judgement was painted by Michelangelo in 1535-1541 in Vatican City, Rome. The Italian Renaissance painting shows some devil like creatures looking at a person that has a very horrified look on it's face. The painting is actually very large and was painted on the whole altar wall of the Sistine Chapel but this picture is also part of the painting. The very dark shading on some of the faces and the devil creature that's looking at the person gives off a very unerving feeling as it looks at the person deciding their fate.
