  3. STATION #1 Both of these paintings are called MADONNA. That means the work of art is Mary holding a baby Jesus. Describe three differences between the two.

  4. STATION #2 Flip the larger paper over and name the piece of art and the artist. Both works of art are called “David.” What is the “medium” (what it’s made out of) Describe three differences between this and the sculpture on the card.

  5. STATION #3 This is the LAST SUPPER by LEONARDO. Compare the actions of the guy in the middle to the men around him. In a word, describe: • How the guy in the middle is behaving • How the guys around him seem to be reaction to something he just said Who is that man in the middle? How many men surround him?

  6. STATION #4 What is this painting called? (if you don’t know, it’s on the bottom) Who is the artist? Describe her expression. Look carefully at her hands. In a couple of words, describe what Leonardo was able to do, using a shadowing method called “Chiaroscuro.”

  7. STATION #5 Flip the top paper over. Name the artist and the work of art. The word “pieta” refers to a work of art in which Mary is holding Jesus after he was crucified. This is NOT a painting, it’s a sculpture, carved out of a single block of marble, about life size. Describe some of the details you see in the enlargement.

  8. STATION #6 This is Michelangelo’s David. It’s a sculpture made out of a single piece of marble, about 15’ tall. Describe some of the details – what you can see he carefully carved, to make this life-like.

  9. STATION #7 This is Michelangelo’s only painting. It’s on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, in Rome. Imagine looking up at it. In fact, pull the larger one off the file and hold it above your head. Describe what you see. Find the one panel that is represented in the other enlargement. It’s called the “Creation of Man.” Adam is on the left. Who do you suppose is the “guy” on the right?

  10. STATION #8 This is Raphael's MADONNA. Describe Mary as a mom… use three words to describe her.

  11. STATION #9 This is Michelangelo’s Pieta. It’s a sculpture made out of a single piece of marble, about life size. The word “pieta” refers to a work of art in which Mary is holding Jesus after he was crucified. Do not touch it, but describe what you see. Imagine this to be life size. What do you think Michelangelo wanted you to think of this moment in time?

  12. STATION #10 This is Michelangelo’s David. It’s a sculpture made out of a single piece of marble, about 15’ tall. Do not touch it, but describe what you see. Imagine this to be 15’ tall. Why do you think Michelangelo did this version of David so tall?
