School of Athens

The Renaissance was a new era that would change the world. People started to do other activities than only religious belief. Most of the people still prayed but, they started to discover things by there self’s and not relay on the past. Most of the past was thinking from Ancient Roman and Greek times. “The School Of Athens” is a fresco in the Papal Palace. It includes the greatest minds of the past, all in one room.
Me in the painting


If I were to be put in the painting “School of Athens” I would put my self as Euclid of Alexandria. Euclid was a Greek mathematician. He was the Western influence in math for over 2,000 years. I always try my best in math and I am a good student. I am not the best of the best but I am in a way. I am goo at teaching people the short cuts of math. I show my little brother what he is going to learn in my grade. He seems to understand as he had been in class. I am not the best but I am a quick learner. People can master the method but I can’t. I can learn quicker than others but I can not fully mater it. That is who I would put myself in the painting. (The guy writing something with a compass on the right)
