    Upon walking into Gallery 250 of Boston's Museum of Fine Arts, one will find on the wall a particularly eye-catching piece of art. The piece, set high on the corner of the wall encompassed by pictures depicting scenes from the life of Jesus Christ, is Giulio Cesare Procaccini's The Scourging of Christ. In this piece, Procaccini's masterful use of light and shadows in a technique called chiaroscuro dramatically portray the torturing of Christ, and it is this very application of chiaroscuro that immediately caught my eye. Through his masterful rendition of value, Procaccini successfully evoked within me a crushing sensation of agony. While I did not initially realize that the piece was one of Christ, research enabled me to witness how daring and bold Procaccini was in being one of the few to depict the agony of Christ. Procaccini's The Scourging of Christ is important in its excellent display of the evocative powers of art, and also in its depiction of the seldom-explored topic of the agony of Christ.…

    It’s well documented that Michelangelo faced opposition surrounding his artistic interpretation of the scene and the many nudes, which were all completely nude at the time with the loincloths painted years later. One of Michelangelo’s most vocal enemies was the Pope’s master of ceremonies Biagio da Cesena, who was constantly on Michelangelo about the nudes. Michelangelo responded by painting his likeness as that of Minos, with large donkey’s ears and a snake wrapped around and biting him in a precarious spot. Better yet, it is right above the side door, the most visible spot from ground level. Cesena complained directly to the Pope, who supposedly joked that he had no power over Hell so it would have to…

    Children with severe disabilities had very few rights in the educational setting until the adoption of the Education for All Handicapped Children Act (EAHCA). Congress enacted the act in 1975, which required all schools receiving federal funds to provide disabled children an equal access to public education and mandated they be placed in the least restrictive environment (IDEA, 2004). In 1990 the EAHCA is currently enacted as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The amendment to the EAHCA requires school districts to assist disabled students with transitioning from high school to postsecondary life. IDEA was amended again…

    Michelangelo Buonarroti, born in the sixteenth century, was perhaps one of the greatest artisans of all time. He was an accomplished artist, sculptor, architect, and poet who demonstrated his great skill with the creation of many astounding works. Michelangelo 's artwork consisted of paintings and sculptures that showed humanity in its natural state. He is remembered today as the man who had sculpted the "David" and the "Pieta", which are two of the most stunning sculptures to come out of the Renaissance period. Although sculpting was the love of his life, his paintings of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, and "The Last Judgement" are considered by many his best masterpieces. Michelangelo 's artistic career can be divided into two periods. In the early period he focused on realism. During this early period Michelangelo 's works included the Pieta and the David. At the age of 24 he completed a statue called the "Pieta," which is still in its original place in Saint Peter 's Basilica. This marble sculpture shows the dead Jesus Christ in his mother 's arms. In 1501 Michelangelo returned to Florence, Italy to sculpt the famous nude sculpture called the "David." The "David" measures 18 feet tall, and is so massive that it took 40 men to move it from Michelangelo 's workshop (Liebert, 72). The second period of Michelangelo 's career was based upon his own imagination. In 1505 Michelangelo was summoned by Pope Julius II to fabricate a monumental tomb for him. We have no clear sense of what the tomb was to look like, since over the years it went through at least five conceptual revisions, and was never actually finished due to frustrating delays. A short time after starting the tomb, Pope Julius II selected Michelangelo to fresco the Sistine Chapel ceiling. When other artists were asked to paint ceilings they lied down on the scaffolding. Michelangelo painted in a standing position which caused him much discomfort (Liebert 146-147). Michelangelo even wrote a sonnet in…

    Facts: Plaintiff is a minor alien, the sole survivor of a tragedy at sea, was rescued and placed in the care of his great uncle, Plaintiff temporary legal custodian, who filed asylum application on the minor’s behalf against the fathers wishes. This application was rejected by the Immigration and Naturalization Services as legally void. Plaintiff appealed to the District court, which was dismissed because the plaintiff’s father was the solely authorized to apply for the Plaintiffs asylum. Plaintiff appealed the dismissal as vocative of 1158 of the Immigration and Nationally Act of 1996 (INA), 8 U.S.C.S. 1101 et seq. whether the Plaintiff minor applied for asylum within the meaning of the INA when he or a non- parental relative submitted an application for asylum against the parental father’s wishes. Because there was no clear guidelines set on these kinds of asylums this fell to the INA, as an executive agency, to make decision. The court upheld the District court’s judgment, stating that the INS did not abuse its discretion or act arbitrarily when making the decision of the Plaintiffs asylum application.…
