Hello incredible classmates and Dr. C , here is my main discussion post for Week 7 Discussion - "
Leonardo, the Renaissance Master
", I hope you enjoy it. It was fun learning about Leonardo da Vinci this week:
Assessing Leonardo da Vinci’s
Last Supper
Ok, so first let’s tackle the question of why he puts all the disciples on the same side of the table. Obviously in real life no one eats dinner with everyone on one side of the table right? So why does he choose to paint it in this way? Give me a few sentences as to why you think did that and then assess a little bit about what you think of this work. Then discuss some of the painting techniques he used. This website
http://www.italianrenaissance.org/a-closer-look-leonardo-da-vincis-last-supper/
will be helpful for finding information about his techniques. Of course, remember to put all of this in your words. This section should probably be at least two paragraphs

4. so that should get you started here. For some reason, last term
a bunch of people cited the
Mona Lisa
as an invention, which it is not, so steer clear of assessing that
here please
A modern comparison to Leonardo would be
Ok, this should be fun. Leonardo is often described as the
epitome of a ‘Renaissance Man’, but what does that mean? A
Renaissance Man is someone who was so skilled in many areas
and was a real game changer in the world. Remember for this
section someone who did something amazing in just one area of
the world would be a weak comparison. Leonardo was a
painter, inventor, weapons designer, etc. and was amazing at all
of those things. Who today reminds of someone like that? So
name the person and then explain WHY you think they are a
modern Renaissance Man.
Of course, after you make your main post please remember to
respond to at least two others to max out your discussion points
