Reading due Tues Feb 17 and assignment due Tues Mar 3

Please read the rest of chapter 15 in Janson's and begin Chapter 16.

Choose a work in the Janson's (any work in chapters 15-17) that you would like to research. Starting in class at the Miami Dade Public Library on Tues., Feb 17th, you will gather a bibliography of at least one primary source, one reference source, and one scholarly article relating to this work of art.

Identify the work of art first, then list the source, in proper bibliographic form (see below for an example). Beneath each bibliographic listing, write a paragraph about how the book or article cited relates to the artwork you chose to research. The completed document is an annotated bibliography.

Work: Hans Baldung Grien. Stupified Groom. 1544. Woodcut, image 13 15/16 "x 7 7/8.

1. Stokstad, Marilyn and others. Art History. Vol. 2. (New York: Harry N. Abrams, Inc., 1995), 736.
This book is a reference source, written by experts in the field of art history after consulting many primary sources and other experts. Stokstad's paragraph on Grien reveals that he was a close friend to Albrecht Durer. The two men influenced each other. This leads me to some next steps: compare other Durer woodcuts to Grien's to establish the extent of this influence and/or rivalry. Also, primary sources cited as related to Durer may also relate to Grien.


You will turn in this annotated bibliography, typed, by Tues., Mar 3. It should be between 2-3 pages, single spaced.
