5 Raphael was an Italian painter and architect of the High Renaissance, celebrated for the perfection and grace of his paintings and drawings. Together with Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, he forms the traditional trinity of great masters of that period. Raphael was enormously productive and, despite his early death at age 37, a large body of his work remains, especially in the Vatican. He was extremely influential in his lifetime, but after his death the influence of his great rival Michelangelo was more widespread until the 18th and 19th centuries, when his more serene and harmonious qualities were again regarded as the highest models.

6 Da Vinci was an Italian scientist, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, painter, sculptor, architect, botanist, musician, and writer. It is for all of these accomplishments that he is often called the perfect example of a Renaissance Man. Born as the illegitimate son of a notary and a peasant woman in Florence, Leonardo was educated in the studio of the renowned Florentine painter, Verrocchio. Much of his earlier working life was spent in the service in Milan. He is widely considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived. It is primarily as a painter that Leonardo was and is renowned. Two of his works, the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper occupy unique positions as the most reproduced portrait and famous religious painting of all time. Perhaps only 15 of his paintings survive to this day. His notebooks, which contain drawings, scientific diagrams, and his thoughts on the nature of painting, comprise a contribution to later generations of artists only rivaled by that of his contemporary, Michelangelo. Most of the 4,200 pages of his notebooks were written in reverse script, so that they could only be read with a mirror. Some historians think Leonardo did this to keep people from stealing his ideas.

7 Michelangelo was an Italian Renaissance painter, sculptor, architect, poet and engineer. He is often considered a contender for the title of the model Renaissance man, along with his rival and fellow Italian Leonardo da Vinci. Michelangelo s artistic output in every field during his long life was amazing. When the sheer volume of correspondence, sketches, and reminiscences that survive is also taken into account, he is the best-documented artist of the 16th century. Two of his best-known works, the Pietà and the David, were sculpted before he turned 30. Michelangelo is also one of the most influential artists in fresco work. His scenes from Genesis on the ceiling, and The Last Judgment on the walls and ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome are among the greatest in the world. Later in life he designed the dome of St. Peter's Basilica there as well. The Pieta (1499) The Creation of Adam from the Ceiling of the Sistine Chapel ( )

8 Botticelli was an Italian painter of the Florentine school during the Early Renaissance. His work has been seen to represent the linear grace of Early Renaissance painting, and The Birth of Venus and Betrothal of the Virgin rank now among the most familiar masterpieces of Florentine art. Botticelli is famous for his mastery of perspective. This is when objects further away are smaller in the painting and closer objects appear larger. Make note of this in Betrothal. The Birth of Venus (1486) Venus and Mars (1483)

9 Station 5 - Jan van Eyck Jan van Eyck was a painter from the Netherlands and is considered one of the best Northern European painters of the 15th century. Some historians believe that he invented oil painting, but all agree that he at least achieved, or perfected, new and remarkable effects using this technique. His Wedding Portrait is one of the most frequently analyzed by art historians. Some feel it is a painted marriage certificate. There is also argument over whether the woman was pregnant or if her hand is simply lifting the dress out as is seen in many renditions of virgin saints

10 Donatello, was an early Renaissance Italian sculptor from Florence. He is, in part, known for his work in bas-relief, a form of shallow relief sculpture that, in Donatello's case, incorporated significant 15th-century developments in perspectival illusionism. His statues are also known for their realism and naturalism, which differed from most statues commissioned at the time. Saint Mark by Donatello (1413) The Feast of Herod by Donatello (1427)
