AP Art History CRAM

<p>For those of you taking APAH tomorrow, let's cram! I'm currently forgetting my Psychology info and focusing on APAH.</p>

<p>So let's ask questions.
The next poster answers the question and asks a new one.</p>

<p>Which artist painted himself in the likeness of Jesus?
a) Holbein
b) Durer
c) Roualt
d) Boticelli
e) Le Brun</p>

<p>Good luck tomorrow!</p>

<p>I think the answer is Durer. (By the way, questions on the exam have 4 choices :slight_smile: )</p>

<p>My question for you guys:</p>

<p>Who painted “The Last Judgement”? Where is it now? Who commissioned the work? What is its significance?</p>

<p>Michelangelo, The Sistine Chapel, not sure who commissioned it maybe like Clement or Julius II?? and its significant because of the spiral composition which is a reaction against the High Renaissance.</p>

<p>Question:
In the Middle Ages female artists specialized in:
(A) stained glass
(B) Mosaic
(C) Oil painting
(D) Tapestries</p>

<p>Do we really need to know those details?</p>

<p>Who invented Linear perspective? When was it first used in a work?</p>

<p>is it masaccio & the tribute money </p>

<p>not really sure, but tahts what came to mind</p>

<p>No, lol, Brunelleschi invented it, and I believe Donatello employed it first in the Feast of Herod.</p>

<p>ah well, thats the piece i learned as an example for linear perspective being used in the renaissance early haha and my book says a masaccio innovation was the mastery of perspective, so i guess he didn’t invent it but was the one to master it in the early renaissance?</p>

<p>EDIT: also can you point me to where i can get info on this? all i can find in my book for perspective and brunelleschi is mathmematical perspective, although i may simply be an idiot and that is linear perspective?</p>

<p>Hey just passing through, not taking AP Art History because it’s not offered at my school, but I know that Middle Age female artists specialized in tapestries. I always think of Atropos, Clotho, and Lachesis (the Fates) from Hercules. I used to watch the show as a kid…</p>

<p>As far as I understood in class, Brunelleschi invited linear (mathematical) perspective using orthogonals and a vanishing point. I learned all of this in my (regular) Art History class. My teacher is amazing though <3.</p>
