This Humanities project is making us look deep within our culture and what we have learned. It is making us understand our human race even more and is making us look within ourselves and learn about our culture without it there is no history. The Pieta by Michelangelo is an inspiring piece that shows a different way of thinking. My next step is to do some more research on this painting and the painter and create a presentation that is really good. I used Google, Dogpile and Yahoo and they are very helpful search engines. Online sources are more helpful than the books. I learned that Michelangelo was different than most painters and that he had different ways of painting. My piece is on the Christ and his mother Mary. I have completed much of everything except the actual presentation and some research. I am going to spend my time in the computer lab on Friday looking for some more research and putting it all together.
