What did you see? What does this information help us to understand about this city and the Renaissance?]]> 2018-04-02 17:30:59 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/247879048 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828250 In Florence, I notice that there were very small roads, with pretty big buildings but unless it was a cathedral or museum it was a bunch of small shops in one big building. There are a lot of museums and cathedrals everywhere, along with small stores and shops. Everything is old and very classical looking. Inside of the buildings that were cathedrals and museums it looked like it was from the Renaissance. This information helps me understand about this city and the Renaissance because it shows a lot of the architecture and culture.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:15 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828250 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828354 In Florence I visited the cathedral. I went inside and saw all the paintings in the dome. I also walked around the city on street view and saw that most of the buildings were either very old and worn down or had lots of intricate designs etched in the stone. Also, a lot of the shops’ names were in English, so I could tell it was common for citizens to speak/read English. I also saw the Arnon river. The water was really, really murky and discolored. I wondered if the city of Florence had littering and polution problems or the water was naturally murky.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:23 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828354 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828383 In the city of Florence I saw some of the historic buildings, a lot of culture and the other landmarks. When I went into the buildings I saw that basically all of the buildings had some type of art inside. It ranged from paintings to sculptures. Most of the buildings were very old and worn down. This tells us that not only the city but also the people of Florence loved art and cherished it and they still do today.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:24 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828383 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828386 While on my "trip" to Florence, I noticed that there were a lot of buildings, and that it really did look like a maze. The roads were small, and the buildings were pretty large, old and worn-down. I was mainly looking around the area rather than reading about it, but I could tell that they really enjoy making things look artistic.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:24 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828386 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828388 In the city of Florence I saw lots of Beautiful Art All around me.The city is very old but,has lots of Outstanding structures.Their culture and art Really stands out.The dome inside of the cathedral was amazing and I wonder how they painted the dome.The city Is looks very calm and maby I will vist it someday.

In Florence a couple main parts that I saw were the Cathedral. The Cathedral was built long ago and is still standing. Inside of the Cathedral it almost looked like a church. Although I have been there before, it still seems like I’m seeing it for the first time. Another place that I saw was the Arno river. The water didn’t seem to clean. The bridges there were filled with lots of tourists. What I can remember when I went there was that Florence overall was very touristy. This information helps me understand how important Florence was in the Renaissance. Also it helps me understand that these cities liked to be beautiful because all the buildings are so pretty.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:25 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828397 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828407 During our visit to Florence, I saw Palazzo Medici Ridiccardi, Ponte Vecchio, Museo Casa di Dante, Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, and Palazzo. I also saw my painting inside the domes.

There was a guy grabbing the 360 camera. All of the buildings were very rustic with narrow streets just like I expected it. I also found a hotel room with a TV the size of a computer.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:26 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828411 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828430 In Florence all the buildings look old and nice. The cathedral was big and the dome looked nice. I think the city of Florence during the Renaissance was a big city and was one of the nicer cities. I learned that the city of Florence was nicer than I thought.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:28 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828430 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828435 The Santa Maria Cathedral is the main church in Florence. This information helps me to know that church was important in the Renaissance, but it wasn’t the main ruler like in the Middle Ages. It also showed me that art was important because I saw many sculptures and paintings.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:29 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828435 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828438 In the city of Florence I saw multiple buildings that had paintings on the ceiling of them. The buildings looked like they had lots of details. Another thing I noticed is that the roads were narrow. ]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:29 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828438 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828458  Some things that I saw in the city of Florence were small streets, ancient buildings, and lots of culture. I also noticed that there were no cars in the streets because there was water everywhere and the narrow streets. I learned that church was very important and that there was an extremely large church in the center of the city. I also learned that there is a river, Arno River, and it flows through the center of town. This information helps me understand more about this city and the Renaissance because since they haven’t changed any of the buildings or really the town that much, it allows me to see what the town was like during the Renaissance and what they were capable of creating.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:31 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828458 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828490              In the city of Florence I saw the cathedral. When I went inside there was a big mural on the roof with sun coming in from the glass. I also saw the bridge. The Arno river was green. I am very surprised all of this stuff still stands today. I also got to see the streets which were beautiful. The buildings colors red, orange, grey and white worked very well together.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:34 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828490 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828501 In the city of Florence I saw the cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and the paintings inside the domes. ]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:35 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828501 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828523 I saw a lot of Renaissance art and also learned how much the people of Florence cared about how beautiful their city was. It seems almost abnormal how much people cared about their city back then compared to people today. I think if people cared more about their towns and cities we could fix many of the problems that we have. ]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:38 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828523 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828527 I went into The Cathedral and it was very crowded. The man taking the picture was directly under the top of the dome. The top of the dome had many interesting designs . Everyone there was taking pictures of the top.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:38 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828527 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828576 I saw a lot of big buildings with amazing artwork inside, mostly on the ceilings of the buildings. I also saw that there was many tourists around huge buildings, one thing that caught my eye was some graffiti on the wall that said 'get away' with a little stick man holding on to flying red balloon.]]> 2018-04-11 17:11:42 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828576 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828594 I learned a lot about the city of Florence.

It was all painted too. I think that this supports the point that people supported the arts during the Reanaissance.

Most of the buildings looked the same, so it’s a very aesthetic place and it’s obvious why there are so many tourists that visit Florence. I could tell there was a lot of culture that went back many years because of the intricate columns and paintings on the ceilings of the buildings. The river isn’t very clean, but I noticed it had several bridges going across it so the river must be an important area.]]> 2018-04-11 17:12:22 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828912 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828916  In my visit to Florence I learned that Florence has many large buildings that have great architecture. ]]> 2018-04-11 17:12:22 UTC https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828916 https://padlet.com/blane12/f7rrr7izvqff/wish/250828921 I learned that there was lots of artistic creativity and lots of colors in there’re art.

This is probably because of the want for art during the renaissance. Lastly, I learned that Florence’s architecture and art was very beautiful, and looked like Rome.
