Directions:
1. You will need to find examples of Mannerism art and compare and contrast it to
Renaissance art.
2. Research Baroque art, and based on your research and class discussion, students
will be asked to write an essay answering the following question:
•
How is Baroque art a reflection of the Catholic Reformation and a rise in
Absolutism? Use specific examples and detail in your answer.
Examples may include: Dürer’s The Adoration of the Magi (Renaissance), Ruben’s The
Landing of Marie de’ Médici at Marseilles (Baroque), and El Greco’s Laocoön
(Mannerism)
