da Vinci Drawings The Vitruvian Man
Da Vinci drew the The Vitruvian Man by pen in accordance with Vitruvius. The drawing was in ink on a piece of 13.5 by 9.5 inches paper. It is stored in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice. In Da Vinci drawing The Vitruvian Man, depicted a male figure in two distinctly different postures, which are corresponding to a couple of sentences in the drawing. The posture of putting feet together and stretching out arms horizontally interprets the words that: the length of a man's outspread arms is equal to his height. The other superimposed posture is stretching out the legs and lifting the arms, which conveys the Vitruvius more professionally: If you cross your legs open and reduce your height one of fourteen, and raise your arms and stretch out, until the tip your middle finger and the top of your head are at the same level, you will find that the center of your stretched limbs is your navel and the space between the legs will form an equilateral triangle. The man in Da Vinci The Vitruvian Man was inscribed in a square beset in a circle. His belly button is the center of the circle. The figure in Da Vinci drawings The Vitruvian Man is universally recognized as the most perfect set of golden ratio for the human body. |

da Vinci Painting Virgin of the Rocks
This is an traditional religious oil painting on canvas by Leonardo da Vinci. The figure depicted by the painter is wearing a soft and naïve expression. Flower-de-luce, anemone, violet and pteridophyte can be recognized in the picture. In the da Vinci painting Virgin of the Rocks, young Virgin Mary cuddles baby John in her soft arms, and gives the other hand to her son Jesus. Facing the audience, the angle leads them to the picture by a series of gestures imply the meaning of protection, instruction and blessing. The composition of Leonardo da Vinci painting Virgin of the Rocks followed the pyramid principle. The top is Virgin Mary's head, with her hands on each side and the angel and baby on the bottom. Da Vinci regarded composition as the key to the meaning of the paintings, which greatly imposed the formation of classical pyramid composition principle of characters in Renaissance. |

His stylistic innovations are even more apparent in The Last Supper, in which da Vinci represented a traditional theme in an entirely new way. Instead of showing the 12 apostles as individual figures, the paintings artist grouped them in dynamic compositional units of three, framing the figure of Christ, who is isolated in the center of the picture of The Last Supper. Seated before a pale distant landscape seen through a rectangular opening in the wall, Christ—who is about to announce that one of those present will betray him—represents a calm nucleus while the others respond with animated gestures. In the monumentality of the scene and the weightiness of the figures, Leonardo da Vinci Last Supper reintroduced a style pioneered more than a generation earlier by Masaccio, the father of Florentine painting. |
