Module 9

1. Explain why you selected each of the TWO videos you choose from the selection listed above.

I chose these videos based on the med evil time period of art. I chose Albrecht Durer: Image of a master because I've always heard stories about him. 

2. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.

Sea Holly (a plant) signifies a groom-to-be.

For an "enamel-like finish" Durer added 6-7 coats of the paint

2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?

Velazquez was very good at blending. In the book we learned about artist' life influencing their art. 

3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings and art concepts?I''m enjoying these videos so far because they give me an inside look into an artist personal life which helps us understand their painting on a deeper level. I find it very interesting "learning" about artists that are so old that our records about them either aren't accurate or are missing pieces.
