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 onthe same side of the table. Obviously in real life no one eats dinnerwith everyone on one side of the table right? So why does he choose topaint it in this way? Give me a few sentences as to why you think didthat 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/ willbe helpful for finding information about his techniques. Of course,remember to put all of this in your words. This section should probablybe at least two paragraphs
The invention of Leonardo that I find most fascinating was
Pickone of his inventions and tell me why you think it was significant andcool. This website lists a bunch of them in great detailhttp://www.museoscienza.org/english/leonardo/models-exhibited 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 issomeone who was so skilled in many areas and was a real game changer inthe world. Remember for this section someone who did something amazingin just one area of the world would be a weak comparison. Leonardo was apainter, inventor, weapons designer, etc. and was amazing at all ofthose things. Who today reminds of someone like that? So name theperson and then explain WHY you think they are a modern Renaissance Man.
