One of the Seven Sorrows of Mary. There are some deviations when it comes to proportions such as Mary's body being larger than Christ's, but this could've been so that the sculpture wouldn't collapse. Jesus looks peaceful and Mary doesn't touch him with her bare hands signifying how holy Jesus is. ]]> 2022-02-15 08:57:14 UTC https://padlet.com/shernandez23/3y1cv2r3to46eyua/wish/2048125714 shernandez23 https://padlet.com/shernandez23/3y1cv2r3to46eyua/wish/2048128250 Known as Christ the Redeemer. Patron requested a nude figure standing with a cross in his arms and left the rest to Michelangelo. Jesus in the sculpture graps the cross as if it is more than the instrument for his death. He grasps it as if it's his gift to the world.]]> 2022-02-15 08:58:36 UTC https://padlet.com/shernandez23/3y1cv2r3to46eyua/wish/2048128250 shernandez23 https://padlet.com/shernandez23/3y1cv2r3to46eyua/wish/2048140106 Major diversion from other depictions of Madonna and Child. In this one Jesus stands alone and straight without much support from Madonna except for her left hand. Mary doesn't even look at Jesus. A possible interpretation could be that she is already aware of his fate, so she is already sad about it. Another could be that she is aware of her place in things and that she cannot do anything to change the events set in place.]]> 2022-02-15 09:06:58 UTC https://padlet.com/shernandez23/3y1cv2r3to46eyua/wish/2048140106 shernandez23 https://padlet.com/shernandez23/3y1cv2r3to46eyua/wish/2048144630 It is definitely fair to say he is more of a sculptor than anything else, this is evident from how he defends sculpture from the attacks from Leonardo Da Vinci. It can also be argued that since the main Renaissance painter is already Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo might as well be the sculptor as he is very skilled and the one who does it the most.]]> 2022-02-15 09:10:18 UTC https://padlet.com/shernandez23/3y1cv2r3to46eyua/wish/2048144630 shernandez23 https://padlet.com/shernandez23/3y1cv2r3to46eyua/wish/2048152011 Bacchus: Made when Michelangelo went to Rome for the first time. Commissioned for a garden by a banker named Galli. Very androgynous and youthful appearance that harkens back to Greek depictions of divine figures so there already is much classical influence. Bacchus holds two opposing symbols in his hand, one holds lionskin for death and the other one holds grapes for life and feeds a faun with the grapes. an interpretation could be that life isnt permanent as the grapes will run out once the faun finishes eating them and all that is left is the lionskin. ]]> 2022-02-15 09:15:35 UTC https://padlet.com/shernandez23/3y1cv2r3to46eyua/wish/2048152011
