22: Leonardo da Vinci: Father of the High Renaissance This series looks in depth at the three most prominent artists of the Italian Renaissance, geniuses who created some of the most famous and most influential works of western art. These men were celebrities, courted by princes and popes. Their works were hailed as miraculous creations of inspired intellectuals not mere achievements of talented craftsmen. We'll look at a rich variety of images, exploring their personal stories and the times in which they lived as well as their amazing contributions to art.
