Masterpiece Makers

Referred to as the "German Leonardo," Albrecht Dürer is the most famous of the Northern Renaissance artists. He became internationally known through his incredible printmaking techniques. ​In this episode, we'll talk about why I call him the Renaissance Rockstar (if hair bands existed in the 16th century, he'd be in one), as well as his famous work, The Young Hare.

Adored by everyone around him, it is said that Raphael was so gentle and charitable that even the animals loved him. In this episode, we're going to learn about the "Disney Princess" of the Renaissance, and his most famous work, The School of Athens.

Michelangelo was a brilliant sculptor, architect, poet (and painter, when he was forced to be). But that didn't stop him from being Mr. Grumpy Pants. It did, however, stop him from bathing... Join us as we discuss another Renaissance genius and one of his most famous works, The Sistine Chapel ceiling.

500 years after he lived, Leonardo da Vinci is still considered a genius and one of the most gifted men to have ever lived. In this podcast episode, we'll tell you why. We'll also discuss Da Vinci's most famous work, the Mona Lisa.
