    Comments: i am doing a renaissance project and we have to do this time line where we take pictures and match them up to descriptions about them. This is a pretty helpful website. Why don't you have Jan Van Eyck???? I need him.

    Good Bye,

    Comments: I think these doors are Ghiberti's greatest works. The detail that went into them...unsurpassed. The depictions are so original, so unique. They are just too grand for words. Ghiberti is just truly amazing.

    Comments: In answer to Carly Travell...the reason that Van Eyck is not on this site is that he was part of the Norther Renaissance movement. This site is based on the writings of Giorgio Vasari, an Italian.

    Comments: This is a Great Picture. Each of the 10 panels and its story is very interesting. So, would hope to see the close-ups of individual panels and would also love to hear some comments on them.

    Comments: I am doing a timeline on ghiberti's life and major accomplishments. I was unfortunate to find out that this site didn't have very useful dates and didn't really halp me on my report. If you know a site with a better timeline, leave a message on this page. Thank you.
