[Get Solution]Mannerism
Write a 250-word (minimum) essay on one of the following topics: 1) The High Renaissance in Italy represents a peak in artistic genius. Indeed, this was the high point for such great artists as Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and Raphael. It almost seems as if Art asked itself, “What could possibly come after this?” Hence, Mannerism arose, first in Florence and Rome, then the rest of Italy, and, eventually, all over Europe. But, just what is Mannerism and how did it hope to improve upon the artistic achievements of the High Italian Renaissance? Discuss whether Mannerism was a fitting and ennobling style to follow the High Italian Renaissance or a disappointing and lack-luster after-thought. Cite two specific examples, only one from the textbook, of Mannerism that support your viewpoints. Or 2) What are the main characteristics of the Elizabethan stage (or theater)? Identify the ways in which Shakespeare can be compared to a contemporary “Movie Star” or “Rock Star.” Cite examples supporting your answers to both questions.
