Day 30: Il Duomo / Figure Drawing

Image
Day 30: Duomo, Musuem / Figure Drawing We conclude our classes here in Florence with the central feature of the old city, the Duomo.  The Duomo (cathedral) is so big and tall that we all tend to navigate by this central landmark. Students got up early to walk some 463 steps up to the top of the dome of the cathedral. Burnaleschi's dome is his masterpiece in architecture with a double shell, unique harringbone construction, built without a centering.  Until modern architectural materials, the dome was the largest in the world. It is still the largest brick dome ever constructed. After the view of the dome, students met up at the Duomo musuem to draw from sculpture by Michelangelo, Donatello, and many others. the Duomo the interior of the dome Michelle looks up into the  interior of the dome.

UNT Studio Art at SRISA Exhibition Students start in the morning by installing a show from the work in classes at the San Gallo campus.  We use the drawing studios for our class, while other classes at SRISA take other areas all over the San Gallo Campus for their exhibition spaces.  The place is a productive chaos with hundreds of students installing all at once...
