Also his parents were never married (just like me), then at an early age his mother married another man and started a new family. Da Vinci never had an advanced education, he was only tought basic…

    inconceivable. Even though it was difficult finding my four choices, I was able to narrow them down in terms of significance and purpose. My four works of art that I will be discussing about are Mona Lisa (painting), The Colosseum (architecture), Everyman (theater), and Dao De Jing (philosophy). The Mona Lisa, obviously, was created by Leonardo Da Vinci between the years (1502-1512). It is an oil painting with cottonwood panel as the surface. The location of origin is absent; however, some…

    many things from science to architect. He is what is considered the perfect man of that time. He is a once in a lifetime person, I do not believe the world will ever experience a man like him. Leonardo is most known for his art, for example, the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.

    Overall Michelangelo focused more on religious figures, where on areas Raphael focused more on modern art. In my opinion Michelangelo placed a lot more detail and texture in his art.

Through time he came up with "The four branches of knowledge" which were…
