Question

In Painting and Experience, Michael Baxandall analyzes this century’s cognitive style using terms like ornato and devoto. For 10 points each:

[10e] Baxandall charts the development of linear perspective by Filippo Brunelleschi (“broo-nuh-LESS-kee”) and Masaccio during the [emphasize] beginning of what century?

ANSWER: 15th century [or 1400s; or quattrocento]

[10h] In the section “The Conditions of Trade,” Baxandall reproduces many of these things to show how a “cult of pictorial skill” developed in the 15th century as these things started to deemphasize gold and ultramarine.

ANSWER: contracts between artists and patrons [prompt on agreements, documents, texts, or equivalents of any]

[10m] Baxandall quotes Piero’s De Abaco on how to gauge these objects to show how geometrical training shaped the perception of paintings. Romanesque art often featured a vault named for these objects, which frames the scene in Masaccio’s Holy Trinity.

ANSWER: barrels [accept barrel vaults]
