whose areas of interest included invention,
drawing, painting, sculpture, architecture,
science, music, mathematics, engineering,
literature, anatomy, geology, astronomy,
botany, paleontology, and cartography. He
has been variously called the father of,

and died at 2nd of May 1519 with the age of
67 at Amboise, Kingdom of France

Mundi, The Virgin of the rocks and many more paintings that has been
made by this man that is been called a “Polymath” which means that is an
individual whose knowledge spans a significant number of subjects, known to
draw on complex bodies of knowledge to solve specific problems.
MONNA LISA
• is a half-length portrait painting by the Italian artist
Leonardo da Vinci. It is considered an archetypal
masterpiece of the Italian Renaissance, and has been
described as the best known, the most visited, the most
written about, the most sung about, the most parodied
work of art in the world.

• The painting is thought by many to be a portrait of the


Italian noblewoman Lisa Gherardini, the wife of
Francesco del Giocondo

• It had been believed to have been painted between 1503


and 1506; however, Leonardo may have continued
working on it as late as 1517. Recent academic work
suggests that it would not have been started before 1513.
It was acquired by King Francis I of France and is now the
property of the French Republic itself, on permanent
display at the Louvre Museum in Paris since 1797
THE LAST
SUPPER
• is a late 15th-century mural
painting by Italian artist Leonardo
da Vinci housed by the refectory
of the Convent of Santa Maria
delle Grazie in Milan, Italy. It is
one of the Western world's most
recognizable paintings
• The painting represents the scene
of the Last Supper of Jesus with
his apostles, as it is told in the
Gospel of John, 13:21. Leonardo
has depicted the consternation
that occurred among the Twelve
Apostles when Jesus announced
that one of them would betray
him.
SALVATOR MUNDI
• The painting depicts Jesus in Renaissance
dress, making the sign of the cross with his
right hand, while holding a transparent, non-
refracting crystal orb in his left, signaling his
role as Salvator Mundi (Latin for 'Savior of
the World') and representing the 'celestial
sphere' of the heavens.
THE VIRGIN OF THE
ROCKS
• Both paintings show the Madonna and child Jesus
with the infant John the Baptist and an angel, in a
rocky setting which gives the paintings their usual
name. The significant compositional differences
are in the gaze and right hand of the angel. There
are many minor ways in which the works differ,
including the colours, the lighting, the flora, and
the way in which sfumato has been used.
THE
SCHOOL
OF
ATHENS
THE SCHOOL OF ATHENS

•is a fresco by the Italian Renaissance artist Raphael. It was painted between 1509
and 1511 as a part of Raphael's commission to decorate the rooms now known as
the Stanze di Raffaello.

•The School of Athens was the third painting Raphael completed after Disputa
(representing theology) and Parnassus (representing literature). It's positioned
facing Disputa and symbolizes philosophy, setting up a contrast between religious
and lay beliefs.

•Raphael’s fresco The School of Athens has come to symbolize the marriage of art,
philosophy, and science that was a hallmark of the Italian Renaissance. Painted
between 1509 and 1511, it is located in the first of the four rooms designed by
Raphael, the Stanza della Segnatura.
Rafae
• Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino. (March 28 or April 6, 1483 –
l
April 6, 1520) known as Raphael was an Italian painter and
architect of the High Renaissance. His work is admired for
its clarity of form, ease of composition, and visual
achievement of the Neoplatonic ideal of human grandeur.
Together with Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, he
forms the traditional trinity of great masters of that period.

• Raphael was enormously productive, running an unusually


large workshop and, despite his early death at 37, leaving a
large body of work. Many of his works are found in the
Vatican Palace, where the frescoed Raphael Rooms were
the central, and the largest, work of his career. The best
known work is The School of Athens in the Vatican
Stanza della Segnatura.
