Title: Renaissance Reflections: Exploring the Values and Characteristics of a Renaissance Masterpiece The Renaissance era, spanning from the 14th to 17th century, was a time of great artistic, cultural, and intellectual flourishing in Europe.

Select a work of art from the Renaissance era that catches your eye. This can be any work that reminds you of an event from your own life or otherwise elicits some kind of emotional reaction. Exclude those pieces that are featured in the Case 1 assignment and Discussion 1 (da Vinci’s Mona Lisa and Michelangelo’s The Creation of Adam).
Write a 2- to 3-page paper discussing how the work of your choice reflects the typical values and characteristics of Renaissance art. In other words, how the artwork represents its respective style. Include information about typical Renaissance characteristics, a description of the artwork, and some biographical information about the artist.
