Respect

It is quite clear to me that the authors of our readings were relatively interested in many things. I believe first off, the authors really cared about paying respect to the history of art itself, as a whole. In the very first two pages, he or she explains, “For this reason, having honour them and to benefit the arts to the best of my ability, I have tried as far as I could to imitate the methods of the great historians.” Also, I truly believe that the authors truly care about giving unsuspecting readers the full history of art and to let the reader really appreciate the origins and dimensions of art. In addition to that, I also think the authors truly care about paying respect to Leonardo Da Vinci, and the marvelous art he embarked on and created. I came to this reason because in the first paragraph, the author compared Leonardo Da Vinci and the works of Leonardo Da Vinci, to something god creates or created. He goes on to say, “…and indeed everything he does clearly comes from God rather than human art.” In the next paragraph, the author went on to use adjectives such as strength and dexterity, regal spirit and tremendous breath of mind-all traits describing Leonardo Da Vinci. Also, he or she used lines such as outstanding physical beauty who displayed infinite grace in everything he did. The author also went on to call Leonardo Da Vinci a genius. I think these are all descriptions supporting my original statement saying that the authors really cared about paying respect to Leonardo Da Vinci and his work. When the author, in the first paragraph, compares you to God-I think the author went a little bit overboard in describing you.
