William

Shakespeare
William Shakespeare was an English poet, playwright
and actor, widely regarded as the greatest writer in
the English language and the world's pre-eminent
dramatist. He is often called England's national poet
and the "Bard of Avon".

Shakespeare produced most of his known work


between 1589 and 1613.[11][12][d]
His early plays were primarily comedies and histories,
which are regarded as some of the best work ever produced in these genres. He then
wrote mainly tragedies until about 1608, including Hamlet, Othello, King Lear and
Macbeth, considered some of the finest works in the English language.[2][3][4] In his last
phase, he wrote tragicomedies, also known as romances and collaborated with other
playwright.

Sonnet 116
Shakespeare's Sonnet 116 was first
published in 1609. Its structure and
form are a typical example of the
Shakespearean sonnet.

The poet begins by stating he should not


stand in the way of "the marriage of true
minds", and that love cannot be true if it
changes for any reason; true love should
be constant, through any difficulties. In
the seventh line, the poet makes a
nautical reference, alluding to love being
much like the north star is to sailors.
Love also should not fade with time;
instead, true love is, as is the polar star,
"ever-fixèd" and lasts forever.

"The movement of 116, like its tone, is careful, controlled, laborious…it defines
and redefines its subject in each quatrain, and this subject becomes
increasingly vulnerable".It starts out as motionless and distant, remote,
independent—then moves to be "less remote, more tangible and earthbound"
and the final couplet brings a sense of "coming back down to earth". Ideal love
is deteriorating throughout the sonnet and continues to do so through the
couplet.
Leonardo da Vinci
Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci (15 April 1452 – 2
May 1519), more commonly Leonardo da Vinci or
simply Leonardo, was an Italian Renaissance
polymath whose areas of interest included invention,
painting, sculpting, architecture, science, music,
mathematics, engineering, literature, anatomy,
geology, astronomy, botany, writing, history, and
cartography. He has been variously called the father
of palaeontology, ichnology, and architecture, and is
widely considered one of the greatest painters of all
time. Sometimes credited with the inventions of the
parachute, helicopter and tank,[1][2][3] he epitomised
the Renaissance humanist ideal.

Mona Lisa
The Mona Lisa is a half-length portrait painting by
the Italian Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci that
has been described as "the best known, the most
visited, the most written about, the most sung about,
the most parodied work of art in the world". The Mona
Lisa is also one of the most valuable paintings in the
world. It holds the Guinness World Record for the
highest known insurance valuation in history at $100
million in 1962, which is worth nearly $800 million in
2017.

The painting is thought to be a portrait of Lisa


Gherardini, the wife of Francesco del Giocondo, and
is in oil on a white Lombardy poplar panel. It had
been believed to have been painted between 1503 and
1506; however, Leonardo may have continued
working on it as late as 1517. Recent academic work
suggests that it would not have been started before
1513. It was acquired by King Francis I of France and
is now the property of the French Republic, on
permanent display at the Louvre Museum in Paris
since 1797.

The subject's expression, which is frequently described as enigmatic, the


monumentality of the composition, the subtle modelling of forms, and the atmospheric
illusionism were novel qualities that have contributed to the continuing fascination
and study of the work.
Raphael Santi
Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino known as Raphael , was
an Italian painter and architect of the High
Renaissance. His work is admired for its clarity of
form, ease of composition, and visual achievement of
the Neoplatonic ideal of human grandeur. Together
with Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, he forms
the traditional trinity of great masters of that period.
Raphael was enormously productive, running an
unusually large workshop and, despite his death at
37, leaving a large body of work. Many of his works
are found in the Vatican Palace, where the frescoed
Raphael Rooms were the central, and the largest,
work of his career. The best known work is The School of Athens in the Vatican Stanza
della Segnatura. After his early years in Rome much of his work was executed by his
workshop from his drawings, with considerable loss of quality. He was extremely
influential in his lifetime, though outside Rome his work was mostly known from his
collaborative printmaking.

The School of Athens

The School of Athens (Italian:


Scuola di Atene) is one of the
most famous frescoes by the
Italian Renaissance artist
Raphael. It was painted
between 1509 and 1511 as a
part of Raphael's commission
to decorate the rooms now
known as the Stanze di
Raffaello, in the Apostolic
Palace in the Vatican. The
Stanza della Segnatura was
the first of the rooms to be
decorated, and The School of
Athens, representing
Philosophy, was probably the
third painting to be finished
there, after La Disputa
(Theology) on the opposite wall, and the Parnassus (Literature). The picture has
long been seen as "Raphael's masterpiece and the perfect embodiment of the
classical spirit of the Renaissance".
Michelangelo
Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni
or more commonly known by his first name
Michelangelo was an Italian sculptor,
painter, architect and poet of the High
Renaissance born in the Republic of
Florence, who exerted an unparalleled
influence on the development of Western
art. Considered the greatest living artist
during his lifetime, he has since been
described as one of the greatest artists of all
time. Despite making few forays beyond the
arts, his artistic versatility was of such a
high order that he is often considered a
contender for the title of the archetypal
Renaissance man, along with his rival and fellow Florentine Medici client, Leonardo da
Vinci.

The last Judgement


The Last Judgment is a fresco by
the Italian Renaissance painter
Michelangelo covering the whole
altar wall of the Sistine Chapel in
Vatican City. It is a depiction of
the Second Coming of Christ and
the final and eternal judgment by
God of all humanity. The souls of
humans rise and descend to their
fates, as judged by Christ who is
surrounded by prominent saints.
Altogether there are over 300
figures, with nearly all the males
and angels originally shown as
nudes; many were later partly
covered up by painted draperies,
of which some remain after recent
cleaning and restoration.
