Start with a small handful of air – dry clay and press or roll it into a disc. You can experiment with gold paint to make your own glowing medallion. A special material used to create the altarpiece is gold leaf: thin sheets of pure gold! Imagine looking at this work of art by candlelight and watching the surfaces behind the figures flicker and glow. You might choose a shelf, a window ledge, or even someplace unexpe cted ! What objects are special to you and your family? Make a space in your home where you can display art works, books, or other collected treasures that bring feelings of serenity, love, or thoughtfulness. The chapel is a space filled with paintings and sculptures that held special meaning for the family and showed others their val ues. Giotto’s altarpiece is a sacred object originally made for the Peruzzi family’s chapel in the church of Santa Croce in Florence. You may want to include an attribute (a special object that can identify the person) in each portrait, just as Giotto does! Then, use a heavy-duty glue like hot glue or Tacky glue to join the boxes or paste your paper frames onto a bigger piece of paper.
In each frame, paste a drawing or painting of a loved one. Use small boxes (a gift box will do) or cut rectangles from shiny paper to act as your frames.
Create a portrait of your friends or family using this idea. These frames help us notice details in each figure separately while joining all of them together in one work of art. The Peruzzi Altarpiece is a painting divided into five sections, each painted on a different panel, with a frame around them.
