...Don Malarkey 2-9-12 Significance of the Lamb The Adoration of the Lamb is Jan Van Eyck’s greatest accomplishments of a Renaissance painter. It was painted with oils in the third decade of the 15th century (Glover). This painting definitely has a lot going on in it.

There are many spiritual aspects in the painting; from the Holy family, Mary, Joseph, and Jesus; to Adam, Eve, and plenty of saints. The representation of these earthly and otherworldly figures shows the aspects of this world and the next. The lower middle piece physically reflects this with the horizon as the divider between the worlds. The saints and other peoples on the ground represent the present and our actual life, the dove in the sky and the rays from the sun represent the heavens and the afterlife (Glover). The lower middle panel is the most intricate piece in this painting. The Lamb, located on top of the altar, carries a large amount of significance which this paper will go into detail.

The second representation of Christ is the Lamb of God being sacrificed on the altar. Its position on the hill indicates how the Host is elevated at the consecration. It serves a double purpose in that it shows the importance of the lamb being above everyone else (Philip...

He is representing a timeless essence in the story. I’m showing you the essence of the story. The difference between an art work and the expectations of art. It seems to not show any technical skills. Why this painting is controversial? Its controversial because its skill doesn’t appeal to art.

...Critiques Chapter 1: 1. Mona Lisa is one of the most famous pieces of art work in the world. Leonardo da Vinci used a light and dark contrast in this portrait to achieve the emphasis of her mysterious facial expression. (Page 2). 2. The artwork of the “Kenyan woman” there was a variety of colors. The colors in this work portrayed the beauty in different cultures. The smile of the Kenyan woman shows that happiness is beauty.
