Go through this at your own pace Go through this at your own pace. Really look at the pictures (be sure to open the PP to slide show so you can see the pictures well) and comment on them, just like we did in class with the Italian art. Hand write notes you gain from your own looking at the pictures that will help you understand what the art outside of Florence was like. Do a quick search online if you are stuck on what you should focus on. Also, be sure to fill in info about the authors, first from the slide, and then from your book notes/online if need be.

One more note: There is way more art in this slide than pictures you need to know. You are only responsible for on the test are: Arnolfini Portrait Peasants Wedding Garden of Earthly Delights However, if you have not figured this out, you are going to be writing something on the differences in the art, and I figured seeing more examples could only help your understanding of it.
