  • Cathedrals and the Last Supper
    Cathedrals and the Last Supper Expressive use of the Elements and Principals of Art in the Renaissance and other eras By Marcine Linder The Middle Ages • Occurred from approx. 500’s – 1500’s ce • During the middle ages (that preceded the Renaissance) people in western Europe thought of the Church as the center of their existence, guiding them over the rough road of life to salvation. • During the middle ages, they saw life as preparation for heaven (or hell) • Human observations, were de-emphasized in favour of divine truths from the bible and the religious clergy. Gothic Cathedras from the middle ages The Renaissance • French for “re-birth” • By the beginning of the 15th century (1400’s), people began to rediscover the world around them and realize that they were an important part of the world • This led to an interest in the “here and now” as opposed to strictly the afterlife, hence a re-awakening • The Renaissance is characterized by a philosophical movement called “Humanism” in which man was considered to be “a measure of all things” (taking the focus away from God) Renissance Cathedral: St. Paul’s Renissance Cathedral: painting by De Lorme Renissance Cathedral: Tuscany The Last Supper • Has been interpreted and painted in many ways over the centuries • Both the prevailing ideologies/moods of the times and the medium/media chosen (or available) to painters over the centuries has greatly influenced the paintings they have created • “In the Christian Gospels, the Last Supper was the last meal Jesus shared with his Twelve Apostles and disciples before his death.

  • The Last Supper Seen Six Ways by Louis Inturrisi the New York Times, March 23, 1997
    1 Andrea del Castagno’s Last Supper, in a former convent refectory that is now a museum. The Last Supper Seen Six Ways By Louis Inturrisi The New York Times, March 23, 1997 When I was 9 years old, I painted the Last Supper. I did it on the dining room table at our home in Connecticut on Saturday afternoon while my mother ironed clothes and hummed along with the Texaco. Metropolitan Operative radio broadcast. It took me three months to paint the Last Supper, but when I finished and hung it on my mother's bedroom wall, she assured me .it looked just like Leonardo da Vinci's painting. It was supposed to. You can't go very wrong with a paint-by-numbers picture, and even though I didn't always stay within the lines and sometimes got the colors wrong, the experience left me with a profound respect for Leonardo's achievement and a lingering attachment to the genre. So last year, when the Florence Tourist Bureau published a list of frescoes of the Last Supper that are open to the public, I was immediately on their track. I had seen several of them, but never in sequence. During the Middle Ages the ultima cena—the final supper Christ shared with His disciples before His arrest and crucifixion—was part of any fresco cycle that told His life story. But in the 15th century the Last Supper began to appear independently, especially in the refectories, or dining halls, of the convents and monasteries of the religious orders founded during the Middle Ages.

  • Learning to Trust God's Unseen Hand a Study of Esther Esther 6:113
    Learning to Trust God’s Unseen Hand A Study of Esther Esther 6:1­13 Lesson #8: Always trust the timing of God. Verses 1­3 ­ The unstated reason for the king’s insomnia was God’s providence. To pass the sleepless night, servants brought the royal annals where Mordecai’s deed of saving the king was 1 read (see 2:19–23). ­ The kings of the great ancient empires always kept annals of their reigns. Apparently the 2 king delighted in hearing the records of his own reign. Verses 4­6 ­ It is quite odd that Mordecai was on the mind of both Xerxes and Haman, and both had their own opinion as to what should be done to him. ­ Who was right? God was. He knew how to bring the actions of all involved to bring about Glory for His name. I would rather not quote you Romans 8:28, but rather Genesis 12:2­3. See also John 11:4. Read from Piper, “Brothers, We are Not Professionals,” pp ​ 6­9. When He was on the cross, He was on His mind. More on this later. ​ Verses 7­9 ­ Haman was only ultimately concerned with Haman. So when asked of how the King should honor the person whom the King delights, Haman immediately thought of what he would have wanted. ­ Selfish desire nearly always supersedes common sense. Haman had not yet asked about the death sentence for Mordecai because he was so caught up in his own honor. ­ To be given a royal robe previously worn by the king was a sign of great honor and the king’s favor.

  • Scrovegni Chapel 1 Scrovegni Chapel
    Scrovegni Chapel 1 Scrovegni Chapel The Scrovegni Chapel, or Cappella degli Scrovegni, also known as the Arena Chapel, is a church in Padua, Veneto, Italy. It contains a fresco cycle by Giotto, completed about 1305, that is one of the most important masterpieces of Western art. The church was dedicated to Santa Maria della Carità at the Feast of the Annunciation, 1305. Giotto's fresco cycle focuses on the life of the Virgin Mary and celebrates her role in human salvation. The chapel is also known as the Arena Chapel because it was built on land purchased by Enrico Scrovegni that abutted the site of a Roman arena. This space is where an open-air procession and sacred representation of the Annunciation to the Virgin had been played out for a generation before the chapel was built. A motet by Marchetto da Padova appears to have been composed for the dedication on March 25, 1305.[1] The chapel was commissioned by Enrico Scrovegni, whose family fortune was made through the practice of usury, which at this time meant charging interest when loaning money, a sin so grave that it resulted in exclusion from the Christian sacraments.[2] Built on family estate, it is often suggested that Enrico built the chapel in penitence for his father's sins and for Capella degli Scrovegni absolution for his own. Enrico's father Reginaldo degli Scrovegni is the usurer encountered by Dante in the Seventh Circle of Hell. A recent study suggests that Enrico himself was involved in usurious practices and that the chapel was intended as restitution for his own sins.[3] Enrico's tomb is in the apse, and he is also portrayed in the Last Judgment presenting a model of the chapel to the Virgin.
