The importance of Leonardo da Vinci in the Renaissance

1. He is a profound, knowledgeable and versatile artist, master of science, literary theorist, great philosopher, poet, musician, engineer and inventor. He has made great contributions in almost every field. Later scholars called him "the most perfect representative of the Renaissance", "first-class scholar" and "prodigy". He deserves all the praise, even more.

Works: Mona Lisa, Vitruvian Man, Rita and Swan, Pregnancy Notice, Last Supper, Notre Dame and Santa Anna, Notre Dame of the Rock.

Speaking of Italian Renaissance art, there is one person who can't be ignored. He is Da Vinci (1452- 15 19).

The most famous master, scientist and doctor of Italian literature and art in the new period. He was born in Finch, a suburb of Florence, and died in France. His father is a lawyer and notary, and his mother is a peasant woman. He came to Florence at the age of 15 and studied in a workshop in verrocchio. 1472 joined the painters' association. Personal style has matured in the mid-1970s. 1482- 1499 worked in Milan, mainly serving the Duke of Milan, and carried out a wide range of artistic and scientific activities. The Virgin of the Rock is his most famous masterpiece in this period.

Self-portrait (demonstration) is regarded as a model of sketch art. His creation of architecture, sculpture and painting is based on a large number of sketches. From the structure to every character and even every gesture, he has prepared sufficient sketches and sketches, and his sketches have played a role equivalent to or even more than modern photography. In this "self-portrait", the painter can describe himself easily. He observes carefully, uses rich and changeable lines, combines rigidity with softness, and especially makes good use of oblique lines with different densities to express subtle changes in light and shade. These sketching techniques have benefited many later painters, and they are called the classic works of sketching art. The lines used in this painting are vivid and flexible, with strong generality, but the simple strokes contain many twists and turns, and the relationship is decent, and the hair line replaces the face, which has a strong three-dimensional sense. Also, the characters have vivid expressions. Therefore, although this painting is a sketch, its artistic beauty and formal beauty are no less than Da Vinci's great works. Over the years, it has been attracting the appreciation and admiration of future art lovers with its meaningful charm.

His achievements are mainly in the following aspects:

1: painting theory

Through his own exploration and practice, he promoted the research results of previous painters on human anatomy, perspective and sketch to a systematic theory. For example, human anatomy, it is said that he personally dissected more than 30 bodies regardless of Catholic laws at that time. His famous sketch (demonstration) of human anatomy is regarded as the most successful idea of including perfect human body shapes in circles and squares. His main works are On Painting.

2. Oil painting techniques

In terms of techniques, we constantly explore and often change the tone of color to create a kind of expression technique called "fog method". Because in some techniques in the early Renaissance, there are still traces of Gothic religious altar paintings, with flat single lines, monotonous colors and relatively weak sense of volume and space. Leonardo da vinci's "Mist Method" gradually disappears the borderline of the characters, if not, it is closer to the truth. We can see leonardo da vinci's creative contribution (demonstration) to oil painting expression from his masterpieces Mona Lisa and Our Lady in the Rock.
