 * SUTTERER'S COMMENTS: Hey guys. By reading your task accomplishments it appears that you are keeping a good pace. Just wondering if you have had a chance to find an image? **

Primavera · What do you see (people and objects) Four people in white almost see through dresses. A man. A canopy of orang e trees. A jungle. A woman in a flowerey dress. Some kind of almost spirit/demon thing.A flying baby. · What is happening? Three women are dancing together and it looks like they might be doing ring around the rosy because of the black plague. Also a fourth woman looks like she is trying to join the other women, but she can't because a spirit thing is holding her so she can't go anywhere. There also is a man picking an orange. Also, a baby is flying over the scene. It also looks as the woman being held by the spirit is the same person as the person in the flower dress, just a younger version. · How are they arranged? What is the physical setting? The setting is in an orchard of some kind. The main person is a woman in the middle of the picture with a floral decoration behind her. · Where does your eye go first? The lady in the center with the baby flying over her head. · What do you see that you didn’t expect? I didn't expect to see the spirit thing holding the woman. It also was weird seeing a flying baby. · What powerful words and ideas are expressed? The black plague might have been implied in the picture because women look like they are doing ring around the rosy. Also I think that there is a message implied about how you change over time and some things come back to haunt you from your childhood.
 * OBSERVE**

· What feelings and thoughts does the primary source trigger in you? It looks kind of dark and not very happy so it was probably dark time in Sandro Botticellis life. It also

· What questions does it raise? Were bad things happening during this time? Were any of the people in the picture, people the artist knew? What are they doing dancing in a circle?

The Renaissance was a time when Europe was culturally “reborn.” The Greek and Romans classical influences changed many things in Europe, such as trade, philosophy, education and art. One way these influences spread was through the Silk Road. This was a system of intertwined trading routes that were used even more after the Mongol conquests in the 13th century. Trading increased dramatically and increased people’s interest about other places and people. Marco Polo, an Italian traveler, was one person that brought attention to the East. Many city-states became very wealthy because of the increase of trading, especially the central city states, like Venice. Some of these wealthier city-states even started using coins instead of trading merchandise. With the city-states’ new wealth, Patrons were able to make their cities beautiful by putting up new buildings and art. The art usually would show figures in action, and in the paintings they would have backgrounds that resembled nature. Some city-states such as Florenza were called republics because they had a government were the people elected a representative. With wealth came an increase in education. The more educated people became interested in a philosophy called humanism. Humanism was a way of thinking that required people to think about self-dignity and not so much about what the church wanted them to think. One of the first Humanists was a man named Francesco Petrarch. Humanists like Petrarch stressed the study of the humanities, which were 5 subjects. These subjects consisted of grammar, rhetoric, history, poetry, and ethics. All of these things were big cultural advances in history. Tyler's summary
