Leonardo Da Vinci And Raphael Santi

Abstract: Art in the Western World has a tendency to be defined by the Masters of the Renaissance. Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci, Botticelli, Titian, Tintoretto, and Raphael are names that stand for an era unsurpassed for vitality and skill, as well as innovation and depth of meaning. This 6 page paper asserts that Da Vinci's Mona Lisa is an icon of global understanding and exhibits many of the techniques that Da Vinci instituted. Raphael's The Nymph of Galatea is a symbol of the changing of era; from the medieval emphasis on Christian doctrine to the acceptance of pagan images. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
