the archetype of the Renaissance man, a man whose unquenchable curiosity was

equaled only by his powers of invention.[1] He is widely considered to be one of the

greatest painters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to

have lived.[2] According to art historian Helen Gardner , the scope and depth of his

interests were without precedent and "his mind and personality seem to us

superhuman, the man himself mysterious and remote".[

He’s fa mous art works

Leonardo's most famous painting of the 1490s is The Last Supper ,

also painted in Milan. The painting represents the last meal shared by

Jesus with his disciples before his capture and death. It shows

specifically the moment when Jesus has said "one of you will betray

me". Leonardo tells the story of the consternation that this statement

caused to the twelve followers of Jesus.

the Mona Lisa or "la Gioconda", the laughing one. The painting is

famous, in particular, for the elusive smile on the woman's face, its mysterious quality

brought about perhaps by the fact that the artist has subtly shadowed the corners of the

mouth and eyes so that the exact nature of the smile cannot be determined.

1475 – February 18, 1564), commonly known as Michelangelo, was an ItalianRenaissance painter , sculptor , architect,poet, and engineer . Despite making few forays

beyond the arts, his versatility in the disciplines he took up was of such a high order 

that he is often considered a contender for the title of the archetypal Renaissance man

He’s famous art works

In November of 1497, the French ambassador in

the Holy See commissioned one of his most famous works, the Pietà and the contract

was agreed upon in August of the following year. The contemporary opinion about this

work — "a revelation of all the potentialities and force of the art of sculpture" — was

summarized by Vasari: "It is certainly a miracle that a formless block of stone could

ever have been reduced to a perfection that nature is scarcely able to create in the

flesh.

della Signoria, in front of the Palazzo Vecchio.
