He was the greatest painter and received recognition during his lifetime. Da Vinci was one of the first, who used oil paints to create artworks, and many wealthy people in Italy sought to buy an oil portrait created by him starting from the 16th century.
Another Renaissance talent is Raphael. His artworks depict gentle and airy images of people, who seem to be perfect. One of the most "productive" portrait artists is Rubens. During his life he painted about 3000 artworks. Rembrandt was a master of conveying emotions through portraits. His works "breathe" with the moods of the characters, you can trace his own style, non-standard play of light and shadow.
