  1. My claim is this painting in the 15th century is very different from the play "Romeo and Juliet" because it's very peaceful and doesn't involve any frays and bitterly violence. For example, in the play in scene I, Tybalt says, "What, drawn, and talk of peace! I hate the word, As I hate hell, all Montagues, and thee: Have at thee, coward! They fight" My "warrant" is that "Romeo and Juliet" has a very harsh environment and violent conflicts. While the 15th century painting has a relaxing and soothing atmosphere. So the the painting is is different because it's a very peaceful painting.

  2. This painting is very different from the play because the play is violent. My fact is when Sampson says" 'Tis all one. I will show myself a tyrant. I have fought with the men, I will be civil with the maids. I will cut off their heads. Eduardo pizano p-5

  3. This painting is very different from the play because the play is very aggressive and the picture doesn't show any kind of violence. For example, in the prologue it says, "where civil blood makes civil hands unclean." this is saying that throw out the play you will see a lot of fighting between the two families. the two are different because the picture shows no fighting while in the play there is violence all throw out it.

  4. The 15th-century painting, "The Wedding Chamber" (1474) differ from the play, "Romeo and Juliet" because the picture is calm, mysterious, and does not include fiery or aggressiveness. In the play, Tybalt says, "What, art thou drawn among these heartless hinds? Turn thee, Benvolio, look upon thy death." My warrant is that anger and fiery builds up quickly and it can lead up to violent acts. The 15th-century contrast from the play because it is shows a more calm side.

  5. The picture is very different from the play "Romeo and Juliet" because in the play two families have a huge grudge on each other and is very violent to each other unlike in the picture it is very exquisite, and peaceful. In the play, Sampson says, "'Tis all one, I will show myself a tyrant: when I have fought with the men, I will be cruel with the maids, and cut off their heads." The picture is very different from the play because the picture shows no violence and in the play the two families use violence other than just talking it out without using any violence

  6. The pictures that are shown on the papers are very different from the play , 'Romeo and Juliet' . In the play there was two families that have a major grudge against one another , and they are violent against each other . But the pictures don't show any type of anger towards eachother . The pictures actually show peace . It shows that the are mature enough to talk about their problems instead of tying to solve them with violence .

  7. Based on the 15th-Century painting, "The Wedding Chamber" it is very different than the play, "Romeo and Juliet" because in the play it is really just two big families holding a nasty grudge against each other.In the play, "Romeo and Juliet" Sampson says, "Tis' all one, I will show myself a tyrant: when I have fought with the men, I will be cruel to the maids, and cut off their heads." In this quote there is fighting, cruelness, and even a threat is made: beheading people; I mean that is a lot of violence in a couple of lines. Conclusively, the 15th-Century painting, "The Wedding Chamber" is very different from the play, " Romeo and Juliet" because the painting shows something of virtuous and peacefulness; while in the play it shows a fiery violence with a side of fighting involved.

  9. The painting is very different from the play " Romeo and Juliet " because in the play they act like they got grudge on each other. In the play tyrant says " when i have fought with the men , i will be cruel with the maids and cut of their heads. " the painting and the play are really different because the painting looks like everyone is happy with each other and in the play everyone is mean to each other.

  11. The 15th-Century painting, "The Wedding Chamber" it is different than the play, "Romeo and Juliet" because in the play it shows two family's hatred towards each other. This shown when,"Tis' all one, I will show myself a tyrant: when I have fought with the men, I will be cruel to the maids, and cut off their heads." This quote shows hatred and cruelness. In contrast to the painting. The painting seems very peace full and it doesn't show hatred or cruelness.

  12. The painting from the 15th-century "The Wedding Chamber", is very different from the play "Romeo and Juliet" because it is very composed and it doesn't involve adversary. For Instance, in the play in scene I Balthazar says, "Do you bite your thumb at us, sir ?" Samson says "I do bite my thumb, sir", Balthazar says, "Do you bite your thumb at us, sir ?", Samson says, "No, sir, I do not bite my thumb at you sir; but I do bite my thumb, sir". The painting though shows that it is peaceful, while in the scene it shows violence.

  13. My claim is that the typical 15th-century painting is so different because, the picture is so peaceful and calm and the scene is so brutal. For example, Sampson said," Ay, the heads of the maids or their madenheads, take it In what sense thou wilt." So my warrant is that in the picture there is no violence and in the scene they whant to cut off the maids heads or rape them.

  14. Based on my point of view, the 15th-century painting, "The Wedding Chamber" is different from the play "Romeo and Juliet" because of how they painting stands out being an art work that shows peace and unity with each other. On the other hand, the play "Romeo and Juliet" is a play that shows a bitterly taste on each others family and a fray like type of background to it. For example, Sampson said, "Nay, as they dare. I will bite my thumb at them;which is a disgrace to them, if they bear it.". This quote shows intrusion towards each other and a huge grudge towards the other family unlike the image which shows a virtous message. While the play of romeo and juliet shows a fray story, the painting shows the opposite.

  15. Im claiming that this painting from the 15th-century "'THE WEDDING CHAMBER" is not similar it's different from the play ' Romeo and Juliet" and the reason why is because this picture is very artificial and it's also very exquisite. And the play just shows hatred between the two families. there's a qoute that states "Uncle, this is a Montague, our foe,
    A villain that is hither come in spite,
    To scorn at our solemnity this night." I mean just this quote shows alot of hatred because Tyrant would never fall in love with Juliet no matter how pretty she may be his hatred towards her wont stop. So there's a big difference between the play and the picture. The picture is very peaceful and calm and the play is hatred and fiery.

  16. In the first act of 'Romeo and Juliet' it starts off with anger and violence, in contrast to the painting "The Wedding Chamber" by Camera degli Sposi that displays a stiff, and albeit awkward gathering of people. In 'Romeo and Juliet' the tension between the opposing families is fairly apparent as two members of the Capulet family converse with each other, their choice of topic being the Montagues along with an array of insults directed at said family following. Sampson, one of the Capulet members, says, "A dog of the house shall move me to stand, I will take the wall of any man or maid of Montague," despite that he is the one to provoke a Montague, knowing full well that it would result in a fight because of their already existent hatred for each other. The quick start to violence contrasts to the painting "The Wedding Chamber." The image displays the posterity of a family where no fiery hatred is seemed to be found, nothing more than this, and nothing less. Unlike the dispute found in "Romeo and Juliet" that runs very deep between the two families.
