Sacrifice of Isaac by Rembrandt

  Sacrifice of Isaac – Rembrandt

Big Ideas: Storytelling, religious moments, morals, obedience, and climatic moments

This piece could be used and was used during my Tiger Artist lesson plan to talk about climatic moments in art. It was used to talk about how artist chose certain moments in a story to depict through art. 

Essential Questions: What types of stories are there? What do they communicate? What is a climax in a narrative? What is a decisive moment and how is it shown? What is it comprised of? What components make up a successful narrative? How can the perspective change the story? Is art a form of storytelling?
What artistic techniques can you use to tell a story? How do artists choose specific moments to tell a story? Can you learn anything about what happened before or after a climactic moment by looking at a single image?

Key Concepts: Students will learn how to identify climatic moments in art. Students will learn how to choose climatic moments in their own personal story and learn how to portray them through art. students will learn how to use characters, event/moments, tone, objects, setting, color, texture, and form to see how establish how artist created the climatic moment or the narrative and how to express their climatic moment through these things. Students will learn how to critically think about artwork and responding to it through open class discusses.
