ARTS 9 MOD 2: SECOND QUARTER

Researches and studies were made and created by different art enthusiasts around the world but despite numerous availability of several courses in art history and appreciation, it will still take several hours and somehow a longer period of individual study to really get a grasp of the similarities and differences of Renaissance and Baroque Period. Art experts know that if an artwork, a painting or sculpture is made in Europe between 1300 and 1600, it’s likely a Renaissance work. And, if it’s a European work made between 1600 and 1750, then it’s Baroque. But the difficulty lies in the fact that if you don’t know the dates of a work, or if you don’t know the particular artist and supporting details on their background the artist lived, how can we tell if it’s Baroque or Renaissance?
