  1. I think the best style of art is Baroque. Renaissance used absolutely no emotion at all. Mannerism used emotion, but was not proportional. Boroque was a type of art that was very realistic, and showed great amounts of emotion. When you look at a Boroque painting, you are able to feel emotions and moods. That is why Boroque is my favorite style of art.

  2. I think that the best style of art between the three that we studied is Renaissance. This is because the Renaissance art was very realic and portrayed the people or things as they really looked. Although there is said to be no emotion within these pieces of art I believe that although it doesn't show what the artist felt this allows the person viewing the art to reflect thier own emotion from the piece. this allows the person who is viewing the art to be more involved and it makes the pwerson think more about what the artist was trying to depict through their art. This is why I think Renaissance art is the best type of art between baroque mannerism and renaissance.

  3. Out of the three styles of art the best one I think was Renaissance. The Paintings weren't the most emotional but they did look better then the other types. In mannerism they did have emotion but none of the painting looked proportional. You could have a man with a head twice as big as his body, or a lady holding a baby half her size. This didn't make the painting really appealing in my eyes. Baroque took both Renaissance and Mannerism and put them together. This would've have been great, but they made a mistake. Many of the painting were religious. Almost all of them were. Art is suppose to be creativity, and when you think of art you don't think of a lecture on Christianity. This is why Renaissance is the best.

  4. I think the best type of art was baroque style. It had tons of emotions even though it was only a picture. It was also very realistic and looked very human like. Renaissance was much unlike Baroque, it had no type of emotion what so ever. Mannerism had some emotion in its drawing, but it was not drawn to scale. I dont see how baroque is not the best type of art. That is why i believe that baroque is the best type of art.

  5. Although I like all three, baroque is my favorite. It has a realistic feel, but is still dramatic and strongly expresses feelings. Unlike in mannerism, people are drawn in proportion. The elongated figures of mannerism do not appeal to me as much, especially when you can achieve the same effect without distorting balance. Also, even though Renaissance art is beautiful and classic, it sometimes lacks what one commonly looks for in art: emotion. Therefore, I prefer the baroque style.

  6. The art technique that i prefer out of all of them would have to be Baroque. I would choose Baroque because it showed emotion and is very relalistic unlike Manerism and Reniassance. That is why I would choose Baroque art style out of those three given.

  7. I think baroque is my favorite. It's full of expressions. It is also realistic and has emotions. Renaissance has no emotion . Mean While mannerism had both emotion and an out of proportion scale. But to me baroque is more attractive, than the other ones.

  8. In history i have learned about three types of art; the baroque, the mannerism and the renaissance. The three types are different, but in there own way creative.My favorite type of art would have to be the baroque. I Like the baroque because emotion was showed. It was flowing art of feelings and porpotion which gave it such a realistic feel to the painting. When you looked a baroque painting you saw the reality in it, but when you looked at a renaissance or a mannerism painting you did gain the same feeling. That is my reason for favoring the baroque paintings.

  9. In my opinion, baroque is the best type of art because it expresses emotion and is proportion. You can see the emotion through the art; in the peoples faces, you will be able to see what they feel. It shows a lot more than Renassiance and Mannerism. Mannerism is not proportion. Baroque is more realistic. There is more details on the characters in the painting. You will feel the painting come to life and see more and learn more than in the other styles.

  10. My favorite type of art we learned was baroque art. Mannerism lacks my vote because its mostly undressed people with unproprtional bodies. I like the baroque paintings because it has so much emotion and you can clearly tell what is going on in the pictures. Also, these paintings are very beautiful because everything is detailed for example the "St. Peter's Bisilica". But I also like the Renaissance architecture. These are my reasons for baroque art favoritism.

  11. Out of the three art styles we have learned about my favorite is Baroque. The three different art styles are unique and creative in their own way. In the painting type mannerism it shows emotion but wasn't painted proportional and I think that took away from the realistic feel. In the painting style Renaissance there were no emotion. If a painting has no emotion the painting is pointless. In my opinion if you really want to understand the painting you need emotion. Last but not least my favorite, the Baroque style. It has emotion and realistic feel. When you look a Baroque style painting you see emotion and feel the pain or happiness the painting is showing. That is why Baroque is my favorite.

  12. In my opinion, Baroque is my favortie type of art. The paintings show emotions, but also look very realistic. Mannerism is not proportion and doesn't show as much emotion like Baroque does. Not saying that mannerism is not appealing, but to me Baroque is an art that I would want to take a second look at. I could see things clearly and it looks like someone took an actual picture instead of someone painting it.

  13. I believe that the best style is baroque. I believe this is the best one because it mixes the best of the rest of the styles. It has emotion, similar to mannerism, and it is also realistic, similar to renaissance. I am not a big fan of the mannerism style of art because it doesn't have proportion. It looks almost demented and I prefer a more realistic and emotional painting style.

  14. I am a big fan of Renaisaance art and literature. I think it incorporates both realism and emotion in a good balance. I am not fond of manneristic style of art. I prefer things to be very proportational and even all the way across. While some people believes that mannerism shows more emotion, I think that renaissance style better represents emotion.

  15. I personally like the style of baroque because it is the most realistic. It is all in proportion yet shows a lot of emotion. It seems the most interesting because u can almost picture it like it was right there next to you. That is why I choose baroque.

  16. I think the best style would be Baroque because it is full of emotion. The mannerism style had some emotion in it, but it was not proportional. The Renaissance style had no emotion at all. The Baroque style is also very realistic, which makes it more interesting to look at. You look at all the different things the artist did to make it more realist to make it look like a photograph instead of a painting.

  17. The art style I prefer most is Baroque. It is more detailed compared to Renaissance and Mannerism. Renaissance art had no emotion added into it. Mannerism was not drawn to scale and I didn't quite find it interesting. Baroque is more realistic and catches my attention more than the others. Baroqque seems more like a picture rather than a painting, and i prefer it most.
