Who painted 'The Last Supper' in the mannerism era?
The most famous version is a large wall mural by Leonardo da Vinci, done between 1495 and 1498, copied as an oil painting by Giampietrino around 1520. Other versions include a painting by Giotto di Bondone in 1306, a fresco by Andrea del Castagano in 1445-1450, and a version by Dieric Bouts painted in tempera and oil on wood in 1464-1468. Tintoretto painted a huge (12 feet by 18 feet) version in 1594. Veronese painted an oil on canvas entitled 'Christ in the House of Levi' in 1573, a scene of the last supper. There are some Byzantine pieces which could also fall under the subject of the last supper, mosaics made before the 1400's.
Is the Mona Lisa a classical art painting?
Realistic I guess you would say. It is a half portrait of Lisa de Giocondo painted by Leonardo da Vinci. While the background was painted in a way that would give the image depth and may not have existed, the subject did; and as it is a portrait of her, I would say it is meant to be realistic in it presentation of her image. However, in the arts realistic or realism means something slightly different than a true image of the subject. Rather, it means the subject of the image is as it would be in everyday life. So the Mona Lisa being a planned portrait would not be realism or realistic.
