Cellini & Michelangelo, Mannerism Pieces

Abstract: A 6 page paper exploring the way which two artists expressed the changing world in which they lived. The two pieces compared and contrasted are Michelangelo's 'The Damned,' a small part of Last Judgment, and Cellini's The Saltcellar. These pieces were selected because of similar and contrasting poses of the figures within the pieces and how they represent a move to Mannerism.
