Giotto Di Bondone was an Italian artist, known for being the first person in history to use emotions in his paintings. Giotto’s parents were painters, although he seemed to be completely self-taught. He was the apprentice to a master whose name was Cimabue, which evolved Giotto’s art style much less stylised and elongated than that of Cimabue.

   Later in life, he became known for painting Frescoes, such as the frescoes on the life of St. Francis in the Church of Assisi, and most notably, the Scrovegni Chapel frescoes. He died later in 1337 in Florence, Italy. 

   Petrarch is known as the father of the Renaissance, and the first ever tourist. Born in 1304, unlike many people, Petrarch learned how to read and write. Petrarch was also a great poet, and his style of adventure and thought certainly didn’t fit the culture around him. 

   Petrarch was known as the first tourist, because he wanted to travel Europe simply for the excitement in travel. Not only did he travel for fun, but in 1336, he also climbed Mt. Ventoux just to see the wonderful sights from above. Petrarch’s way of living was something unheard of. No one would travel for fun, and no one would climb a mountain for fun, since they’d always go around the mountains. He died one day before his 70th birthday, but will be remembered for turning the Renaissance from the ‘Dark Ages’, to the ‘Enlightened Ages’.
