Andrea Pisano’s bronze doors for the Florence Baptistery were an important fourteenth-century commission. When it was decided to commission a second set of doors for the Baptistery, a competition was held to determine the artist. Ultimately, the work of the young and unknown sculptor, Lorenzo Ghiberti, was chosen over the work of the more established Filippo Brunelleschi. Do you agree with the decision of the judges?
Present an argument as to whether you believe Brunelleschi or Ghiberti should have been selected for this prestigious commission.

I believe Ghiberti was the correctly chosen artist in this instance. Wether or not Brunelleschi was more established, the doors should have been commissed from the person who has better skills fitted to this one topic. If Ghiberti also had shown a personal link between He and the baptistery, that would just be the icing on the cake, that way He could see what they wanted better than somebody whom didn’t have a connection.

Explanation:

bro sorry if this sucks, i like just woke up.

perimeter = 2l +2w, divide total perimeter by 2 for total length of 1 side and 1 width

172/2 = 86 (  total for 1 side and 1 width)

86-24 = 62 (since length is 24 ft longer subtract 24 then divide by 2 for width)

62/2 = 31

width = 31 feet

length = 31 +24 = 55 feet

check: 31*2 = 62, 55*2 = 110,  110+62 = 172
