Metropolitan Museum, What i learned!

Johannes Vermeer who was dutch named this famous artwork "Allegory of the Catholic Faith" in which the theme is how the snake in the painting represents Satan because in religion he is often depicted as one and you could see him being crushed. Which i assume God was the one who is responsible for that also you see the women with a globe at the bottom of her feet which i would assume means she had the world at her feet. This painting is from the renaissance due to the religious aspect of it.









                                                                                                    With that being said here's my attempt at trying to recreate this famous artwork.

















Caravaggio born in Italy named this artwork "The Denial of Saint Peter" here we could automatically tell this is a baroque artwork as baroque artwork was known to have really intense emotions or to be dramatic. You could also see that there is only natural light entering in which they are standing and their surroundings are dark.








Here's my go at it as you can see i'm not really the greatest artist in the world but i think it looks somewhat ok.
