2. Architecture:
Dome
This building is from a University in my
town. I believe these structures reflect
Renaissance architecture because it was
widely used then. The dome shows how
popular architect style has continued to be
used through time.
3. Inventions: Microscope
The microscope was a rising
creation during the
Renaissance period. I have a
more modern version of it. I
believe this shows how
people continue to develop
inventions from that time.
4. Art: The Last Supper
The Last Supper is a mural painted by
Leonardo Da Vinci. Prints of this painting
now sit in many homes and churches across
the US. For example, this is a decorative
plate my grandmother owns. I feel, this
reflects how art not only spread across the
world, but continued to be used long after
the Renaissance.
5. Architecture: Columns
Columns were another hugely popular
feature of architecture during the
Renaissance. This picture depicts
columns on the front of a local building.
I believe this shows how their
popularity continued to grow outside
the timeline that was the Renaissance.
6. Literature: She’s the Man
She’s the Man is a modern day comedy that
is surprisingly based off a Renaissance play.
The play is called “Twelfth Night” and is
written by William Shakespeare. It is
known that Shakespearean work is still
very popular today, but I feel this shows
how his ideas have given way to continued
adaptations.
