What other famous painters are there in the world?

Leonardo Dissel Piero da Vinci

Da Vinci (1452- 15 19) is a symbol of human wisdom. He has infinite ideals like a god, trying to recreate the beauty of the world, measure the vastness of the world and explain the mystery of the world. But he only has ordinary life and strength. His ambition is to discover everything, study everything and create everything. His life is an endless road, full of lofty unfinished works. Before he died, he said sadly, "I have never finished a job in my life." Leonardo was born in the small town of Finch on the outskirts of Florence, so he was named Finch. At the age of five, he was able to draw a portrait of his mother on the beach from memory, and at the same time, he could improvise and sing with himself, which attracted the admiration of the people present. Father Antonio, as a lawyer, realized his son's painting ability and decided to send him to study in the Rocchio Studio of Florence Artists Council. There, he was not only educated in painting, sculpture and architectural art, but also influenced by other sciences. Finch studied the relationship between light and shade of eggs in Rocchio's studio, and found the drawing method of gradual change of light and shade. He spent six years in Wei Rocchio's studio and grew into a model with modern scientific ideas and human wisdom. Finch can't display his talents in Florence. He is bent on bringing his art and wisdom into the real world and shining brilliantly. At the age of 3 1, he wrote a letter to ludovico sforza, the Grand Duke of Milan, in which he listed his various talents. Finally, he said that he could create a statue of the Grand Duke's father riding a horse and become an unprecedented giant statue in the world. The ceramic statue of the master who completed this masterpiece at the age of 4 1 was not completed because there were not enough copper castings, and it was destroyed when the French army invaded in 1499, otherwise it would be a miracle of the world. The archduke's reward for his genius and hard work was not gold coins, but gold words and jade words, which made Finch very uneasy. To comfort him, the Grand Duke asked him to draw a picture for the canteen of Gracie Temple in Milan. This is the last supper. If The Last Supper is the most famous religious painting in the world, the Mona Lisa painted by Finch when he returned to Florence from Milan at the age of 5/kloc-0 is undoubtedly the most famous and greatest portrait in the world. These two world-famous works make Leonardo da Vinci's name go down in history forever. Leonardo da vinci's unique artistic language is to use light and shadow to create a three-dimensional plane image. He once said: "The greatest miracle of painting is to make a flat painting look uneven." He used the principle of light change of a sphere to create the light-shade transfer method (also known as gradient light-shade method), that is, the transition from light to dark in an image is continuous, like smoke, without obvious boundaries. Mona Lisa is a model of this painting method. Vasari thinks that this kind of light and shadow painting is a turning point in painting art. Finch has been exploring the noble temperament of art all his life, and he can only be satisfied with the creation of beauty. /kloc-In the 5th century, Italy's pursuit and creation of science, rationality and beauty reached its peak because of Leonardo da Vinci. However, the master's talent was not valued and appreciated in his later years, and the Pope's indifference made him very sad. 15/kloc-When King Francois I of France reoccupied Milan in 0/5, he invited the master to settle in Crueburg, France, and applied to be a court painter. 15 19 Master died in a foreign country at the age of 67. His student Francisco mutch said: "The death of Finch is everyone's loss, and the creator can't create another person like him."

Michelangelo

Michelangelo Buonarroti (475- 1564), as a master of the Renaissance, had an unparalleled influence both before and after his death with his magnificent masterpiece spanning time and space. As versatile as Leonardo da Vinci, he is also a sculptor, painter, architect and poet. He was lucky enough to live to the age of 89 and spent more than 70 years in his artistic career. He experienced the ups and downs of life and the indifference of the world, which made his works have dramatic effect, magnificent momentum and tragic human nature.

/kloc-At the age of 0/3, Michelangelo entered the studio of domenico Ghirlanda Io, a famous Florentine painter, where he first came into contact with the sacred career he had been engaged in all his life, and mastered the painting skills at a magical speed. Later, he entered the "Free Art School" run by Lorenzo Medici, the ruler of Florence. Because of his extraordinary talent, Lorenzo attached great importance to him and took care of him. A large number of works of art in the palace became the object of his study and research, and humanistic poets and scholars who frequented the palace also gave him great influence. In just four years, he obtained all the necessary conditions for being a great artist in the Medici Palace, which laid a solid foundation for his entire artistic creation.

In Lorenzo's mansion, there is a "Plato Institute" where scholars get together to study knowledge. With the support of Lorenzo, they created a new ideological system-humanism. Their idea is to give the world back to people and give people back to themselves. To return the people's art, literature and science, as well as their independent thoughts and feelings as individuals, we must never let the people be bound by dogma and die and rot in chains like slaves.

Michelangelo often went to listen to savonarola, a religious reformer and monk, who exposed the darkness of the church. This monk who was not afraid of the inquisition in order to save the fate of mankind left an indelible mark on his soul.

After Lorenzo Medici died, Michelangelo lost his protector and Florence was in chaos. He felt that his hometown was not a place to stay for long, went to Venice and Bologna, and then turned to Rome to look for development opportunities. Rome is full of ancient statues, as if walking into a huge ancient art treasure house. Michelangelo, 23, was commissioned by the French cardinal to make a statue in memory of Christ for St. Peter's Church. The appearance of this statue made Michelangelo a famous Roman, and another sculpture superstar rose after Donatello. The 26-year-old Michelangelo returned to his hometown of Florence with honor, and immediately devoted himself to the production of the marble statue of David, which was completed three years later. As the patron saint of Florence and a symbol of democratic government, it was placed in front of the main gate of the Virgo Palace.

1505, at the invitation of Pope Julius II, Michelangelo went to Rome to build a tomb for the Pope in St. Peter's Church. After hardships, the sculptor left a famous sculpture "Moses and Slave" for the mausoleum. Michelangelo's sculpture achievements made bramante, the artistic director of the Pope, extremely jealous. He instigated the Pope not to restore the mausoleum for the time being, and forced the sculptor to paint murals on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Michelangelo accomplished it with extraordinary wisdom and perseverance.

The master of 4 1 year-old returned to Florence, and Pope Giovanni di Lorenzo de' Medici, who was born in medici family, forced Michelangelo to make a statue for the tomb of his ancestor Sanlorenzo. Famous statues of the sun, night, morning and sunset were placed on the sarcophagus of this tomb.

The sculptor, 6 1 year-old, was called to Rome by the Pope and painted the doomsday judgment map on the altar wall painted at the zenith of Genesis 25 years ago. Michelangelo is the crystallization of human genius, wisdom and courage, and his glory and achievements belong to all mankind.

Vincent van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh (1853 ~ 1890) was born in a Protestant family in Zandet, the Netherlands. Before he was 24, he worked as a clerk in Gupir painting shops in The Hague, London and Paris. Later, he became a missionary and preached in the Borina mining area in southwest Belgium. He was fired for sympathizing with and supporting the demands of poor miners. After living a life of extreme disappointment and poverty, he decided to liberate himself in the pursuit of art. After 1880, he studied everywhere, sought advice from the Royal Belgian Academy of Fine Arts, and learned G from the Dutch landscape painter Anton Moff, but finally decided to teach himself. He overcame all kinds of difficulties and tried to express the world according to his own understanding. Before 1886, his works were still in the exploratory stage, such as The Potato Eater and The Textile Worker. 1886, Van Gogh came to Paris with his younger brother, who was a senior employee of Gupier's painting shop, met Toulouse-Lautrec, Gauguin, pissarro, Seurat and Cezanne, and attended a gathering of impressionist painters. Thus greatly broadened the artistic vision and began a completely different painting method from the past, with strong colors and bright colors. 1February, 888, he and Gauguin went to arles in the south of France to sketch and paint for a year. This is the most important period for the formation of his artistic style. The towns, fields, flowers, rivers, farmhouses and churches under the strong sunshine in the south made him cry over and over again: "bright, bright!" "

At this time, he and Gauguin had already had differences with impressionism, but at the same time they had a strong interest in expressionism or symbolism. So there was a plan to establish "southern impressionism" or "impressionism separatism" Later, because their relationship deteriorated and Gauguin left, Van Gogh gradually parted ways after the incident of cutting off his ear. Therefore, they did not form any groups. 1890, Van Gogh returned to Paris and lived in Orwell-on-Vaz after a long-term hospitalization in Moso Mental Hospital in Saint Remy. He was given special treatment by Dr. Gasser, who painted diligently, including Dr. Gasser's Xiaoxiang and Orwell's Church. However, 1890, 10/October 27th, after an argument with Dr. Gasser, he suddenly shot himself and ended his life.

Van Gogh left a wealth of works in his life, and it was not until he left that he was gradually recognized by people. In these works, the author pursues the expression of self-spirit, and all forms jump and twist under the control of fierce spirit. This kind of art had a far-reaching influence on expressionism in the 20th century, especially the painters Su Ding and German expressionism, who absorbed many important principles from Van Gogh's works. He is the most influential painter in the Netherlands after Rembrandt. However, when he was still alive, a * * * only sold 1 painting.
