What do you know about this painting
School of Athens 《雅典学院》
《雅典学院》是意大利画家拉斐尔·桑西于1510～1511年创作的一幅壁画作品。现收藏于意大利梵蒂冈博物馆。
该画以古希腊哲学家柏拉图举办雅典学院之逸事为题材，以极为兼容并蓄、自由开放的思想，打破时空界限，把代表着哲学、数学、音乐、天文等不同学科领域的文化名人会聚一堂，以回忆历史上黄金时代的形式，寄托了作者对美好未来的向往，表达了对人类中追求智慧和真理者的集中赞扬，反映的是古典时期学派林立、相互切磋的景象。
画作采用了拱形圆屋顶作为背景，以很高的透视法水平，增强了画面的空间立体感和深远感。整幅画气势恢宏、场面宏大。画中人物栩栩如生、活灵活现。
The fresco shows many famous philosophers such as Plato, Aristotle, Socrates, and Pythagoras, （柏拉图、亚里士多德、苏格拉底和毕达哥拉斯）though it is not clear who they all are. Although all shown together, they were not all contemporaries (同时期的；同一时代的).

Vincent Van Gogh (1853 — 1890) was a painter of Holland. He’s famous for his idea of emotional expression in painting. His great paintings include The Sunflowers, Starry Night and Wheatfield with Crows.
Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, and ceramicist. One of his most famous paintings, Guernica(格尔尼卡), is a very large painting showing the bombing of a Spanish town during the Spanish Civil War.
Claude Monet (1840 — 1926), was a French painter who was the initiator (创始人), leader, and unswerving (坚定的) advocate of the Impressionist style. Famous paintings include: Wheatstacks (干草堆), Sunrise (日出), Waterlilies (睡莲).
Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) was an Italian polymath (博学大师), but is most well-known as a painter. Famous paintings include Mona Lisa and The Last Supper. He is seen as an example of “Renaissance man”, a person whose skills and desire for knowledge and development know no bounds.

How would you answer the question, “What is art ”
I think that art is anything that someone has created and is beautiful or produces emotion inside us. Art is not just painting and drawing. It can be photography, or cooking, or music, or dancing, or playing a sport. If it is done with skill and moves the viewer, then I think it is art.

Art as the creation of beauty is a process which involves a lot of motivation, energy, and effort, and of course, imagination. Having good taste and appreciating art perhaps help one’s ability to create art, and therefore beauty.
