The Emotional Contrast of Two Female Images While searching through online galleries for images that pleased my eye‚ I happened upon two images that I could not ignore.

Brittany Hewing Art of the Renaissance 222-01 11/10/2014 In this essay I shall discuss two paintings I observed at the Art Institute of Chicago and compare the two as well. During our field trip to the Art Institute of Chicago even though we did not have enough time to properly view the pieces along with a large portion of the museum with pre-renaissance pieces in them were closed off to the public.
