The MFA trip

Last Friday, the AP European History class went on a field trip to the Museum of Fine Arts. On the trip, we examined how European art changed through time by see art from the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Baroque era, impressionism, and finally modern art, such as Picasso.
The trip began with a breakfast at Au Bon Pain at Northeastern. I myself had a cup of clam chowder.
We first saw late Renaissance art, including work by such artists as El Greco and Velasquez. Next, we stepped back in time to view art from the Middle Ages, which was much more flat and two-dimensional. We then saw Baroque art, which included more secular themed art such as still-life's and landscapes. The Impressionist room was excellent as all ways, with art by painters such as Degas, Van Gogh, Renoir, and Monet. Finally, we saw some modern art including the world famous painting Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going? The trip ended with some free time, in which we were able to explore. Many of us went to the new Art of the Americas wing, which was amazing. Finally, we as a class had a great time, especially because now we have a whole new supply of in-jokes.
