Kimber Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I think these will go well with art for ancient history. Thanks a lot, Kimberly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Check out Amblesideonline.com for their art study. They have a yahoo group where you can print them out. Also, I think Rembrandt is a bit later in history. You can also buy little artist books from Dover. HTH. Tina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alice Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Ambleside Online does have them. They did Rembrandt last year. You can either print them yourself as an option or you can order prints for $17 (shipping included) that is on good quality photo paper. I just ordered prints for this term's artist and was very pleased with the quality and the speed of shipping. http://www.amblesideonline.org/ArtAngela.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacy in NJ Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Do you have access to a library? They should have alot of Rembrandt books with good color photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CactusPair Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 :iagree::iagree::iagree: Go with the better quality pictures in the library, rather than the cheapest stuff printed off line. The lower the quality, the more detail and nuance you miss in the picture. When I was in college, we used small prints from a group called University Prints. Not sure if they're around anymore. Each student would get a small box of required prints. Not too expensive, glossy, and better quality than a post card. Another idea is to use the web to look at paintings if you have quality graphics on your computer. When I graduated, classes were starting to require this. Google the paintings or artist and/or the name of the museum which exhibits the piece you want to look at. You might get some links there. The museums' gift shops may carry postcards of the particular painting you want. Does Dover make any postcards for Rembrandt? I have Egyptian postcards from Dover and I was pleasantly surprised. Not too pricy at all and I got a whole book of punch out cards. Check the Dover website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimber Posted August 16, 2008 Author Share Posted August 16, 2008 Wow! You guys are fantastic! I am going to check out of all these options. Thanks a bunch, Kimberly Tina, I picked Rembrandt because the focus of many of his pieces are ones that would coincide well with ancient history. The Return of the Prodigal Son is one that I really want to study with them. So I decided to go against the 4 year type plan and work with content, at least for this year. Who knows about next year or even next month for now. :D Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
