Giotto



The site doesn't have so much information about the introduce of Giotto,but it has a lot of great information about his paintings.

Kiss Of Judas

This painting is one of the most famous works from Giotto.
The artist used some techniques to make people foucus the action on Jesus and Judas.
You can notice that the man on the right side points them,and the weapons of the soilders also
make us pay more attention on what Juda did.This way is very sucessful.
In this painting,you may also find a few angry emoions on Jesus's face. In addition ,there are some interesting details in this picture,like the man on the left side ,I think he may wants to cut the other man's ear.

This website is good that I spent more time on it.It is different from the first site,it has nuch information about Giotto's life and his style on his paintings.

The Mourning Of Crist
His art was extremely innovative,you can see the reason in the
picture.There are some new elements in it,different from another paintings in dark ages .
This painting also use the same techniques to make people notice the subject,but you can see more lines in this work.I think this one may painted in early Renaissance.The color of this painting isn't very bright and beautiful,however,it brings a peaceful feeling to me.This one is one of my famous paintings from Giotto.
