achievements of art
/kloc-at the age of 0/5, Leonardo da Vinci began to study in the studio of the painter A.del verrocchio. 1472 Join the Painters' Guild. In the mid-1970s, personal painting style gradually matured. From 1482 to 1499, he lived in France and engaged in other artistic and scientific activities besides serving the Duke of Milan. During this period, his paintings were not many, but The Virgin in the Rock and The Last Supper were his masterpieces. 1500 Travel to mantua and Venice. 1506, he returned to Florence to create the Madonna and Santa Anna and the Mona Lisa, and began to paint murals for the city hall. 1507 went to Milan again and served in the French court. 15 13 moved to Rome, 15 16 went to France and finally settled in Amboise. In his later years, he seldom painted, devoted himself to scientific research, and left a lot of notes and manuscripts when he died, covering almost everything from physics, mathematics to biological anatomy. Few paintings have been completed in his life, but they are all immortal. His works have obvious personal style and are good at combining artistic creation with scientific discussion, which is unique in the history of world art. Academics generally divide his creative activities into two stages: early stage and prosperous stage.
Early creation
When he studied art in verrocchio's studio, he showed an extraordinary talent for painting. About 1470 When he assisted verrocchio in drawing a picture of Christ's baptism, although he only drew an angel standing beside Christ, his expression, manner and gentle tone have obviously surpassed that of verrocchio. According to legend, verrocchio stopped painting for this reason. His earliest work, Pregnancy Notice, still exists today. Although the composition is nothing new, the description of the background landscape pays attention to the expression of air atmosphere. This shows that he devoted himself to solving the dialectical relationship between writing and typical processing from the beginning. Later, The Portrait of Ginef La Debenheim, contrary to the tradition of 65,438+05 century art pursuing clear lines, rendered the perspective effect he advocated with the tone of backlit sunset. Written in 148 1, The Doctor Comes to Worship (also translated as Three Kings Comes to Worship) is a work that marks the maturity of its artistic style. Although the painting was not finished because he went to Milan, it can be seen from the original manuscript that the artistic innovation in composition and image-building greatly surpassed that of his teachers and colleagues: the stable composition of the triangle composed of the virgin baby and three doctors, and the accurate perspective of the painted architectural relics and galloping horses show that he no longer simply lists the relevant figures from the narrative point of view, but completely transforms the traditional theme. The dark painting method he adopted made the characters stand out from the shadows, broke through the characteristics clearly revealed in traditional painting, and heralded the arrival of the Renaissance.
Prosperous creation
1482, Leonardo da Vinci came to Milan, and at the invitation of Sanfrancesco Church, he painted the altar painting "Madonna of the Rock". Although this work hidden in Paris is still a traditional theme, its characterization, carving in the depths of caves and real description of flowers and plants among rocks prove that his smoke brushwork has made it reach a new level in fax realism and artistic treatment. This painting, in particular, was created by leonardo da vinci after a long time. Although the layout has not changed much, the movements of the characters have changed to some extent. It should be regarded as the first painting < < Madonna of the Rock > > The Last Supper is his most famous work in this period. This wet mural shows the farewell scene of Christ to his disciples before his arrest. It was painted in the dining room of the monastery of Santa Maria Derlager Hin in Milan. The ingenious composition and layout of the commercial camp make the hall on the screen closely connected with the building structure of the restaurant in life, making the viewer feel that the scene in the painting seems to happen right in front of him. In the layout of characters, Christ is placed in the form of a table, which makes him independent from the center of the picture. Other disciples expressed fear, anger, doubt, repentance and panic through their different gestures and expressions. This description of typical personality highlights the theme of painting and complements the unified effect of composition, which is the most perfect model in the history of art. Leonardo da Vinci returned to Florence in 1500. With the restoration of the harmonious system, the cultural atmosphere was once active, and outstanding figures such as Michelangelo and Raphael appeared in the painting world. He showed the public a well-conceived sketch of the Virgin and Santa Anna, which immediately caused a sensation. Its composition principle and painting method had a great influence on the art world, and Michelangelo and Raphael were also inspired by it. 1503 began to paint murals for the conference hall of the city hall (it was never finished because I went to Milan again), and at the same time, I created Mona Lisa, Notre Dame and Santa Anna. These are two works that he cherishes very much, and he always carries them with him. He emigrated to France in his later years and stayed in Paris.
In Leonardo da Vinci's artistic heritage, a large number of sketches are also worthy of attention. These sketches, like his official works, have reached a high level and are regarded as models of sketch art, which are characterized by meticulous observation, rigid and flexible lines, and especially good at expressing subtle changes of light and shadow with oblique lines of different densities. Every work of his is based on sketches. His artistic theory is scattered in more than 5,000 notes and his unfinished painting theory, which is also a great achievement in the study of agency theory in the Renaissance. Leonardo da Vinci was a famous painter in the Italian Renaissance and one of the most outstanding representatives of the Renaissance in Europe. He is a profound, knowledgeable and versatile artist, sculptor, architect, engineer and scientist, master of science, literary theorist, great philosopher, poet, musician 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.
Leonardo da Vinci is a symbol of human wisdom. He has infinite ideals like a god, trying to recreate the beauty of the world, measure the vastness of the world and explain the mystery of the world. But he only has ordinary life and strength. His ambition is to discover everything, study everything and create everything. His life is an endless road, full of lofty unfinished works. Before he died, he said sadly, "I have never finished a job in my life." Leonardo was born in the small town of Finch on the outskirts of Florence, so he was named Finch. At the age of five, he was able to draw a portrait of his mother on the beach from memory, and at the same time, he could improvise and sing with himself, which attracted the admiration of the people present. Father Antonio, as a lawyer, realized his son's painting ability and decided to send him to study in the Rocchio Studio of Florence Artists Council. There, he was not only educated in painting, sculpture and architectural art, but also influenced by other sciences. Finch studied the relationship between light and shade of eggs in Rocchio's studio, and found the drawing method of gradual change of light and shade. He spent six years in Wei Rocchio's studio and grew into a model with modern scientific ideas and human wisdom. Finch can't display his talents in Florence. He is bent on bringing his art and wisdom into the real world and shining brilliantly. At the age of 3 1, he wrote a letter to ludovico sforza, the Grand Duke of Milan, in which he listed his various talents. Finally, he said that he could create a statue of the Grand Duke's father riding a horse and become an unprecedented giant statue in the world. The ceramic statue of the master who completed this masterpiece at the age of 4 1 was not completed because there were not enough copper castings, and it was destroyed when the French army invaded in 1499, otherwise it would be a miracle of the world. The archduke's reward for his genius and hard work was not gold coins, but gold words and jade words, which made Finch very uneasy. To comfort him, the Grand Duke asked him to draw a picture for the canteen of Gracie Temple in Milan. This is the last supper. If The Last Supper is the most famous religious painting in the world, the Mona Lisa painted by Finch when he returned to Florence from Milan at the age of 5/kloc-0 is undoubtedly the most famous and greatest portrait in the world. These two world-famous works make Leonardo da Vinci's name go down in history forever. Leonardo da vinci's unique artistic language is to use light and shadow to create a three-dimensional plane image. He once said: "The greatest miracle of painting is to make a flat painting look uneven." He used the principle of light change of a sphere to create the light-shade transfer method (also known as gradient light-shade method), that is, the transition from light to dark in an image is continuous, like smoke, without obvious boundaries. Mona Lisa is a model of this painting method. Vasari thinks that this kind of light and shadow painting is a turning point in painting art. Finch has been exploring the noble temperament of art all his life, and he can only be satisfied with the creation of beauty. /kloc-In the 5th century, Italy's pursuit and creation of science, rationality and beauty reached its peak because of Leonardo da Vinci. However, the master's talent was not valued and appreciated in his later years, and the Pope's indifference made him very sad. 15/kloc-When King Francois I of France reoccupied Milan in 0/5, he invited the master to settle in Crueburg, France, and applied to be a court painter. 15 19 Master died in a foreign country at the age of 67. His student Francisco mutch said, "The death of Finch is everyone's loss, and the creator can't create another person like him."
"God sometimes endows a person with beauty, elegance and talent, which makes his behavior superior, indicating that his genius comes from God rather than human power. This is the case with Leonardo. His elegance and grace are unparalleled, and his wisdom can solve all problems. " This is vasari's praise of Leonardo da Vinci.
