15. Mona Lisa (Louvre in Paris)

so greatly to the ineffable mystery of this famous painting

 The enigma is heightened further by the famous smile,
which has appeared before in Gandharan art in India, in
Gothic art at Reims Cathedral, and even earlier in archaic
Greek art-wherever in art it would seem, the world of the
real and the world of the ideal made glancing contract. It is
precisely this blend of the real and ideal that adds to the
mystery of Leonardo’s mind and art.

21. Analysis and evaluation of Leonardo
and some of his paintings.
Leonardo’s art of expression needs utmost
admiration. This expression was nurtured by his
power of his invention and also by every technical
means:
• Drawing
• Color
• Use of light and shadow
To Leonardo, expression became a key concept of
art; it also included the basic demands of truth,
beauty, and accuracy in everything depicted.

brothers, and an uncle.
As a boy, Michelangelo cared little for the
traditional Latin and humanistic studies; and his
inclination to draw led his father, despite his scorn or
(disrespect) for art, to enroll him on April 1, 1488 in the
workshop of Dominico Chilandio, the most popular
painter in Florence (Italy). A year later, however,
Michelangelo left in that master to study in the Medici
Gardens near San Marco.
