A temporary exhibit at the Ringling Art Museum, it featured works from the Renaissance era. I viewed pieces from other galleries such as the Etruscan, Roman, and Egyptian Art, however, the earlier pottery seemed more restricted to creativity. The earlier were created more for functionality than anything else, for many of the pitchers, had nearly the same style shape and handle. I was inspired by the Gothic Art because the creativity was overwhelming. As in the picture to the left, vessels were inlaid with precious metals and intricate designs. A common depiction and engravement was a lion, which I assume would signify nobility. The pieces gave off an aura of divinity and power.
I believe this visiting this gallery was beneficial and I would recommend others to do so, for it truly inspired me to pay more attention to the little intricate details.
