Rngage the work: Christ with Symbols of the Passion, by Lavinia Fontana, executed in1576 in oil on wood panel. Then each student will write a 3-page paper in which they consider the work as an example of Mannerist style through comparison to the Rosso Fiorentino image, Dead Christ with Angels, covered in the Mannerism lecture and in a Khan Academy video. Students will be required to discuss the two works based upon Mannerist criteria, such as contextual and spatial ambiguity, unnatural figural proportions in affected poses, palette and anxiety level or strange mood. These works provide the perfect opportunity to write a comparison, as both images depict the dead Christ with angels and symbols of the Passion and both were painted by Italian artists that chose to work in the Mannerist style.
