This website has many pictures. And some sculptures pictures with a lot of in formation, but some information is difficult to read, so I didn't read a lot. I just look the painting and read some short information.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This painting called "Joachim and the Beggars", it painted by Andrea di Bartolo. I choose it because it seems happyness. Even though the things in the painting's scale aren't correct, the house looks like a paper, but I still likes it. He painted it about in 1400.






I choose this painting called "Madonna and Child Enthroned", painted by Gentile da Fabriano. The Virgin Mary holding the jesus. Its colors are rich. looks very shine
and have gold surfaces are typical of International style's decorative.

Giotto


http://www.historyforkids.org/learn/medieval/art/giotto.htm
This is a site about Giotto. Giotto is an Italian painter. The picture I choose its name's "Madonna In Glory". I choose it because the pattern is special. It's very very painstaking.I think they use a lot of time to paint these patterns.

This site has a lot of Giotto's painting. And they also give them the score. The painting I choose in the site is called "Crucifixion". It's about the Jesus is nail on the cross. You can see the people arunod him are worship to him. Everyone has their own emotion and show on their faces.
