florence is still a thriving center for the goldsmith's art.his is the studio of signor giorgio chilleri at the ponte vecchio. he works here as a master with his apprentice craftsmen. a whole generation of florentine artists-- ghiberti, brunelleschi, donatello-- began work in studios not unlike this, working on just such meticulous and minute creations before moving on in their careers to their monumental works of art. in an environment where the craftsman's skill so is highly prized, it was inevitable that their status should rise. inevitable, too, that the most brilliant of them-- men like brunelleschi and donatello-- should resent the restrictions which the craft guilds could place on them and the implication that their work was menial, a mechanical craft. and so, increasingly during this century, such artists came to see themselves as the equals of their patrons-- no longer humble, anonymous craftsmen, but self-confident, ambitious, intellectual practitioners of the liberal arts, famous beyond their own city. brunelleschi visited rome after

he was the son of a nuremberg goldsmith and drew this portrait of himself at the age of 13. he became the first artist in western art to make a detailed series of self-portraits throughout his life analyzing his changes of mood and image. durer studied nature with the same incisive vision with which he analyzed himself. he was one of the first artists to paint water colors from direct observation. he wrote, "we german artists "have grown up like wild trees in the forest, knowing nothing of the rules of proportion and perspective." these water colors were painted while durer was traveling from nuremberg to venice. he wished to learn from italian art and to have his status as an artist acknowledged in the land of the renaissance. venetian paiings from around 1500 show the city that durer visited-- the wealthiest trading center in europe. giovanni bellini, who painted this portrait of the doge of venice, was described by durer as very old but still the best of the venetian painters. the young german was gratified that this italian master should ask him for one of his works. bel

he did a thank -- thorough job as the typical of judge goldsmiths where it is allowable to do an illegal pilot on this baseline. but there was a kwoerey. there's no way to put it back. in this case, you can put it back. the city could just start enforcing the law. that's like more like the lake tahoe case where there were illegal buoys in lake tahoe. and the court said you can't not enforce the law and put a bunch of buoys in and say that's the baseline. that is entirely reversible. the buses are moving around. they can say don't use the red zone anymore. >> one of the arguments against the tahoe cases that it rested on the national environmental protection act versus ceqa. why would you use that case to support your argument here today? >> thank you. i love that question. lake tahoe is our best client. it didn't rest on neeb a. they have their own planning exact. it is called an eis which sounds like nip a, but it has to comply with ceqa and nip a. the court analyzed both laws and it's very very similar. >> you think the court was clear on that ruling. i didn't read that ruling but you

the plays of goldoni, goldsmith, sheridan and even the keystone kops or tom and jerry cartoons come to mind. the venetian twins represents the more physical or situation comedy. it evolved from the commedia dell'arte tradition. in the commedia, there were no written scripts, only scenarios, and the actors improvised their dialogue and bits of stage business as they performed. in this connection, it might be appropriate for me to recall something that i actually witnessed on the broadway stage. the great zero mostel was starring in a funny thing happened on the way to the forum. and the night that i saw the performance, he decided to pick on a young man who was a member of the chorus and who was well-known in the company, as i later on found out, for breaking up, that is to say, being made to laugh easily on the stage. zero was incorrigible and he decided to make a victim of this young man that night. and during the scene, when the young man was playing a soldier in the army of miles gloriosus, zero stopped the action of the scene and went to work on him making faces and dancing around
