So here are the short answer questions: 

1. The work is The School of Athens by Raphael. Analyze how both the subject matter and the style of the work reflect humanist interests during the High Renaissance. (10 Minutes) 

2. The question is based on the following quotation. There are no slides with this question. 
     " It is scarcely possible, even with hard work, to imitate what Michelangelo accomplished. This ceiling is a 
       true beacon of our art, and it has brought such enlightenment in painting that it illuminated a world 
       which for hundreds of years had been in the state of darkness." -Giorgio Vasari, Lives of the Most 
       Eminent Painters, Sculptors, and Architects (1550, 1568) 
During what art-historical period did Michelangelo paint the ceiling mentioned in the question? How did the ceiling exemplify Vasari's claims about Michelangelo's accomplishments? (10 minutes) 

Multiple choice will be on the works listed on your flashcard list.
