RAPHAEL, LEONARDO da VINCI , MICHEL-ANGE

Italian Art seemed to be the fruit of a tradition that builded it as a Palace. And Renaissance Arts as Sums of knowledges....
From the times where the Roman Empire was destroyed the system of antique symbol from Nature ( Nature as described by prof. Werner Heisenberg, Nobel prize of physics) has been" lost " sometime... And had to be patiently re-build....

thus i remarked that a painter as Masaccio in the painting
Saint Pierre healing leprosis ... was in fact explaining a kind of " sum " of how faces were drawn before him, until the discovery of a better 3/4 face visage representation....

Let's put up briefly this idea that : certain parts of this giant tree called Art are definitely aimed to be
" sum of knowledges of an epoch " for instance s' Vasari period...

- MICHAEL ANGELO who was directed to represent 3D anatomies wherever possible ( a bit far from the chaste eyes thus on a ceiling) the universe of SHAPES ; THE EARTH
also remember the creation of Adam where God is represented into a purple veil the exact shape of a brain profile cut and thus the beginning of a sery of inclusions...

- RAPHAEL SANTI a painter of peaceful and beautiful people and intellectuals ( able to " lead " their minds ) from now and from the past the universe of the SPIRITS & SOULS : THE HUMAN
let's look again at the portrait of his friend Balthassare de Castiglione ( whose books about politeness and courtesy are still very valuable )
and you discover a very funny laughing face as the shadow of his hat.... 1st humoristics drawings !

- LEONARDO da VINCI, a viewer of hydraulics whirlwinds and other principles of mathematics ( see my essay on a contemporary lecture of Leonardo da Vinci's mathematical thinking ...for instance, as a painter, i demonstrated that Gioca-Onda is -also - a formula ). He foresaw further abstractions of the mind and abstractions over abstractions... then concretised as machines : The universe of FORMAL ABSTRACTION & RULES & IDEAS : THE COSMOS
