    I picked this photo because it shows a sculpture of the Roman emperor Augustus. Sculpture was a very popular medium of art at the time. Other mediums are Coins, Mosaics, and Pottery.

    I picked this painting because it's of Jesus. During this time, at least in Europe, we returned to religion being the most important thing instead of progress or science. We had many wars because of religion, and we still do today.

    I picked the Mona Lisa because it was the most famous painting of its time and probably all time. It was made by Leonardo da Vinci, a well-known and influential person of his time and later. He also made the Last Supper, one of the most famous paintings ever.

    I picked this painting because it symbolizes the Enlightenment very well. It shows people entering the light and leaving the dark ages. They look awed at it because it will be a different time. Other good paintings of the time are The Death of Socrates and The Swing, both very famous.

    I picked this photo because I like this painting. We also did an assignment on it and the other painting in its group. Other than that, this painting sums up the whole period and shows the desire to do things you like and want to become. One painting that I almost picked is Liberty Leading the People. I like this painting because it is closer to American history, and all the others were European.

    I picked this painting of Queen Victoria because the whole era was named after her. She was a crucial figure and shaped a lot of history today. Examples of this are India and Pakistan fighting with each other because of England taking over their country.

    I picked this painting because I did my art recreation on it. However, that's not the only reason. I also liked this art because it is a good example of abstract art, which was seen during the modern period. Also, it is an example of "make it new."

    I picked this art because it is still abstract to an extent. However, during this period, artists liked distorting or adding many colors to people's faces. I don't really like this art much because I don't understand it at all, and it is kind of creepy. However, one example I do like of postmodern art is urban art, which is simple yet colorful.

    I picked this piece of art because it was talked about a lot during its time. It got a lot of hate because people don't think it's "real art," which I can see and agree with. I wonder if in the future, art will mostly be AI or weird banners on walls. Interestingly, there are many social media groups hating art like the banana. Does this mean we will return to a place of "real art"
