    A good quality oil painting must dry for at least 6 months between layers, that's why it took so long and that why many weren't finished.

    I believe many of Leonardo Da Vinci's paintings were left unfinished more because his obsession with perfection had him take years to complete, and the paintings would start to fade and discolor, and he became frustrated and stopped working on them... And even though the "Mona Lisa" was completed, it wasn't accepted by the commissioner, and Da Vinci kept it, and as the years had the painting fade and discolor, he added layers of corrective paint to it to keep it "fresh"...

    19:45 I know why Leonardo considered Green to be a color that could not made using the color wheel. What he was referring to is a color called phthalo green. Both phthalo green and phthalo blue are two colors that can't be made using the color wheel and are used to make turquoise colors. If Leonardo only had access to phthalo green in his lifetime I see why he would consider it another color.

    Weird logic, just because he may of considered green a primary color doesn’t mean he didn’t mix it from blue and yellow. Phthalo colors were created 400+ years after his death in the early 20th century. He used terra verde, chrome green, and made sap greens by mixing black with yellow and/or ochre, all of these would be tinted with white. Also, he obviously wasn’t color blind and there is no record of that.

Anyway, Da Vinci is one of the greatest artists that ever lived. The Sistine Chapel and Mona Lisa are among his numerous masterpieces. If you really don’t know anything about life and art, definitely check him out. His personal life is as fascinating as his art. 🙂

    A mix of good and bad/wrong. The sections devoted to The Lady With The Ermine belong to the former. To the latter: (1) The Medicis made Leonardo famous ? How? (2) Following his (formal) education - what education? (3) Almost all the scenes purporting to show Leonardo painting, show a right handed artist. (4) Even Martin Kemp - who has vast knowledge in the field, says (around 8:30) that he worked for Ludovico for 19 years. Maximum time in Milan working for Ludovico would be about 17 years, (1482-1499). Regret not having seen The Lady with The Ermine when it came to Houston (~2004); now am told by the people in the Cracow Museum, the paining will almost certainly not be lent out to any other museum in the future. Some discerning viewers, tsay it may be Leonardo's best. And as for Kemp saying Mona Lisa first and Last Super second; Kenneth Clarke, perhaps the greatest art critic of the 20th century, said The Last Supper is the most iconic painting in the Western World.

    ...on no, here I go... The comment regarding Leonardo's personal feelings on color, regarding his idea Primary Colors to be: i.e., Leonardo referred these to as "The simple Colors": Red, Yellow, Blue, *Green,* with Black, and White. ... and the man's comment: "... plus Black, White, and oddly enough, "Green", which for reasons that elude me." 😶😯😔 That statement evokes somethings inside me, something deep and quite human, possibly Ego-Minded. Be that as it may, it causes a desire to slap the man - right in his weak, arrogant, soft, face, and quite frankly say to him, "Of course it eludes you!", "One must have evolved out of their own head and limited space of the Socialized ideaology they think relative, and realize their truer self, their Soul, and their human connection to this 3D world." "The Earth, dammit!" "Green is part of Life, of Living, of Fresh!" As I verbalize this in comment, it seems to have relieved my urge, yet reminds me, I have to apply more time in focus to manage my thoughts, away from the human lower minded/Adolescent Minded Ego Mind. It is not the words one says,it is the truer meanings, the actions and emotions, and what that means statement really said, was, "Let me take this opportunity to demonstrate my idea of my status, of arrogance, of important, of ...that old man in old times was undesirable and just happened to paint a Mona Lisa, and I'm a Mainstream Academic that knows I'm loyal to the human created version." ... Yep, it requires more effort on my part, to not desire to slap those whom arrogantly demonstrate their ignorance as if they are intelligent and correct, i.e. *"Mainstream Academics and those whom judge others on about the same level of knowledge, that which is gathered from Mainstream News Media."* I should delete this comment, but I will leave it for whatever it might be worth to another ... 😉
