Giotto was an influential Italian painter from Florence in the late Middle Ages who made a decisive break from the Byzantine style and is seen as initiating the techniques of Renaissance painting.

Michelangelo was commissioned in 1508 to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. He reluctantly accepted the commission as a sculptor rather than a painter. Over the next four years, Michelangelo painted nine scenes from the book of Genesis on the ceiling, divided into three groups depicting God's creation of the world, mankind, and evil. His masterpiece on the Sistine Chapel ceiling, including the iconic image of God creating Adam, established Michelangelo as one of the greatest artists of the Renaissance period and influenced generations of artists.
Leonardo da Vinci painted The Last Supper between 1495-1498 while working for the ruling Sforza family in Milan, Italy. It was commissioned for the refectory of the monastery of Santa Maria delle Grazie. The painting depicts the moment when Jesus announces that one of his apostles will betray him, capturing the apostles' varied reactions. Over the centuries, the painting deteriorated substantially due to experimental techniques and damage from a bomb in WWII. It underwent a major restoration from 1979-1999 to repair and preserve what remains of da Vinci's masterpiece.

2. Giotto and the renewal of painting: realism
and intuitive perspective, in four frescoes in
Assisi.
The changes in painting from medieval to modern
times can be seen in the work of the great early
Renaissance artist Giotto. The simplicity and strength
of his forms, as well as the humanism he infused in his
works, set him apart from his Byzantine
contemporaries and at the forefront of Italian painting
in the early years of the Renaissance.
3. The Story of St. Francis
Assisi
A famous cycle depicting the life of St. Francis,
adorns the walls of the Upper Church of St. Francis at
Assisi. The cycle consists of twenty-eight panels
around the lower part of the walls of the nave and
entrance.
4. The gift of mantle
This work stunned the poet Dante!
5. GIOTTO BREAKS WITH
BYZANTINE ART
St. Francis is giving his mantle to a poor man
in a landscape with natural elements. The
lanscape is real, it isn’t abstract, as in the
earlier painting.
6. The Renunciation Of Worldly Goods
This is the fifth of the twenty-eight scenes of
Legend of Saint Francis.
7. When Francis' father accuses his son of
squandering his fortune, Francis returns to him
even the clothes he is wearing, and repudiates
him. Giotto illustrates this sensational public
separation, which signifies the decisive step
towards the saint's future life of poverty, by means
of the two groups of people on opposite sides. The
buildings further reinforce the gulf between the two
worlds.
How are the architecture of these frescoes?
What about their depth?
8. The renunciation of wordly goods
The building in this scene has a real
loggia and is threedimensional.
10. Giotto paints the scene with exquisite
tenderness.
No painter had never driven to such realism:
the viewer viewed from the usually reserved
only for the priests. There is a wooden cross
obliquely inclined towards the nave.
11. The preaching before Onorio III
The room is open in the illusionary wall. There
are slender columns and three groups of
characters, arranged in a curved line. All the
elements give a sense of depth.
