He was was a painter and mathematician who studied as a member of the workshop of the sculptor Lorenzo Ghiberti. While most of his early work had been in the Gothic style, following naturalistic, curved lines, his experience with sculpture under Ghiberti allowed him to think in three-dimensional forms while working on two-dimensional paintings. Uccello used his experience in mathematics and applied it to art in order to champion the use of perspective in Renaissance art.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Uccello&#8217;s compositions utilize perspective to give his paintings depth and give more weight to each scene. The objects in his paintings each have their own space that they occupy rather than simply laying flat in front of a background. This weight makes the interactions of the different subjects feel more dynamic. <em>The Hunt in the Fores<\/em>t<em>, <\/em>for example, uses the hunting dogs to show the depth of the forest, and the size of these dogs deepens the forest, giving it a more vast look. The fallen logs point deeper into the forest, and guide the viewer&#8217;s eyes towards the center of the painting, and towards their common vanishing point. In <em>The Battle of San Romano, <\/em>the fallen knights show the depth of the battlefield, and gives each cavalry a space to occupy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/438028\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"847\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Crucifixion-The-Metropolitan-Museum-of-Art-1024x847.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-44\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Crucifixion-The-Metropolitan-Museum-of-Art-1024x847.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Crucifixion-The-Metropolitan-Museum-of-Art-300x248.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Crucifixion-The-Metropolitan-Museum-of-Art-768x635.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Crucifixion-The-Metropolitan-Museum-of-Art-700x579.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>The Crucifixion, mid 1450&#8217;s<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ngv.vic.gov.au\/explore\/collection\/work\/3747\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"684\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/Saint-George-slaying-the-dragon-684x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/Saint-George-slaying-the-dragon-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/Saint-George-slaying-the-dragon-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/Saint-George-slaying-the-dragon-768x1150.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/Saint-George-slaying-the-dragon-667x999.jpg 667w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/Saint-George-slaying-the-dragon.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 684px) 100vw, 684px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Saint George Slaying the Dragon, 1430<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ashmolean.org\/hunt-forest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"484\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Hunt-in-the-Forest-1024x484.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-47\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Hunt-in-the-Forest-1024x484.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Hunt-in-the-Forest-300x142.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Hunt-in-the-Forest-768x363.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Hunt-in-the-Forest-700x331.jpg 700w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Hunt-in-the-Forest.jpg 1728w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption> The Hunt in the Forest, 1465-1470 <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artuk.org\/discover\/artworks\/the-annunciation-142859\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"587\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Annunciation.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-48\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Annunciation.jpg 587w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/connielow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9752\/2019\/09\/The-Annunciation-220x300.jpg 220w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 587px) 100vw, 587px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>The Annunciation, early 1420s<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sources:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Gombrich, E H.
