Leonardo Da Vinci View Da Vinci Collection

Leonardo da Vinci was a Florentine artist, one of the great masters of the High Renaissance, who was also celebrated as a painter, sculptor, architect, engineer, and scientist. His profound love of knowledge and research was the keynote of both his artistic and scientific endeavors. His innovations in the field of painting influenced the course of Italian art for more than a century after his death, and his scientific studies, particularly in the fields of anatomy, optics, and hydraulics, anticipated many of the developments of modern science.

Rembrandt Van Rijin View Rembrandt Collection

"Every morning when I wake up, I experience an exquisite joy - the joy of being Salvador Dali - and I ask myself in rapture, 'What wonderful things this Salvador Dali is going to accomplish today?'" A leader of surrealism, his precise style enhanced the nightmare effect of his paintings. Among his best-known works is Persistence of Memory (1931; Mus. of Modern Art, New York City). In 1940, Dali emigrated to the United States. He wrote The Secret Life of Salvador Dali (1942). Dali also made surrealist ventures in films (e.g., Luis Bunuel's Un Chien andalou, 1928), advertising, and the ballet. The Salvador Dali Museum, St. Petersburg, Fla., is devoted entirely to his works.

Sandro Botticelli View Botticelli Collection

Botticelli's signature motifs, highly detailed ornamentation, a rich color palette, and attenuated forms, make his paintings both immediately recognizable and wholly original. Born in Florence, Botticelli was exposed to the rich art tradition offered by that city. Originally trained as a goldsmith, Botticelli also apprenticed under the painter Fra Fillipo Lippi, who instilled an interest in Gothic forms, new perspectival devices, and a greater sense of corporality. As a result, the artist developed a unique style that acknowledged the Florentine art tradition and thta also strove to be innovative. After a series of religious and devotional commissions, Botticelli was asked to paint a series of mythologically themed pictures.

Michelangelo Buonarroti View Michelangelo Collection

As sculptor, painter, architect, poet, and engineer, Michelangelo Buonarroti stands as the archetype of the Renaissance genius, with a talent that transcends time and continues to influence and inspire contemporary artists. Michelangelo began his career in Florence in 1488, as an apprentice in the studio of Domenico Ghirlandaio. He quickly moved to the Medici Court in Florence where he gained an appreciation for classical sculpture and humanist philosophy that shaped and influenced his work. After the death of his patron, Lorenzo de Medici, the artist traveled to Bologna and Rome, continually refining his brilliant technique and establishing his reputation as a dominant force in the arts.

William Adolphe Bouguereau View Bouguereau Collection

Tender scenes of children, women, and angels made Bouguereau one of the most successful artists during France's Second Empire and continue to make his work popular today. In order to earn enough money to attend the Ecoles des Beaux-Arts, France's most prestigious art school, Bouguereau kept books for a local wine merchant and colored lithographic labels for a grocer. After work, the artist would make drawings late into the night. His persistence and hard work paid off when he was granted the coveted Prix de Rome in 1850, which allowed him to study art in Italy for three years. After a series of successful public commissions and with representation from several prestigious international galleries, Bouguereau was elected to the French Academy in 1876, a position he had sought his entire career.
