Assignment:

Two of the great innovations of the Renaissance in painting were the artist's ability to depict a more contemporary world, and to create the illusion of a three-dimensional world in a painting. By studying and comparing paintings created in Italy from the fourteenth and the fifteenth centuries, you can see how this innovation developed:

Giotto. Lamentation Fresco in the Scrovegni (Arena) Chapel, 1305-06
Masaccio, The Tribute Money, c. 1427
Masaccio, The Tribute Money, c. 1427
