More from Last Week

Here are a few more layouts using pictures from last week. I've finally gotten around to the Art History field trip! It was hard to make myself do the Temple of Castor page since we've already been tested over the material, but it was necessary in order to move on the San Pietro.  I'm also going to try and start on the necropolises we saw yesterday, which were super fun.  It was hard to mentally balance, "omg this is so cool, we get to climb all over a necropolis!" and "This used to be a cemetery, and archaeologists have completed raided it. The Etruscans would not be pleased." Either way, it was certainly a learning experience.

Temple of Castor in the Forum:

And here's the first stop on the art history trip, San Pietro in Montorio. It's on the top of the Janiculum, and you can see the whole city from up here. So amazing.

Here's the Tempietto, which is located in the courtyard of San Pietro, just off to the side. Our professor called it the best preserved instance of High Renaissance architecture (assuming I'm remembering the "High" bit correctly. Whichever bit of the Renaissance it is dated to, that's the best example of that period). It's surprisingly small considering the proportions of the building.

I have a few more pages from the weekend to do as well - another two page set! I'm really starting to get into this whole one kit, match opposing pages thing. The symmetry is heartwarming :)
