In the first task you have to label the activities in Florence by making use of colour coding. (For example, highlight the label and highlight the corresponding image in the picture. Then do the same for the next label, but use a different colour.)

This is a frieze:
A frieze is “a broad horizontal band of sculpted or painted decoration, especially on a wall near the ceiling”.

This is a bust:

A bust is a sculpted or cast representation of the upper part of the human figure, depicting a person’s head and neck, and a variable portion of the chest and shoulders.
In the second task you have to explain what the source tells you about life in Florence during the Renaissance. (Make sure that you do this in great detail, with reference to the source – i.e. the picture!)
