The historical art work I'm choosing for this particular blog is Da Vinci's 'The Lady of the Disheveled Hair' or 'La Scapigliata'. How original? I know, but I love this portrait. In this piece Da Vinci uses many elements and principles of art. He uses different values of the sepia-type color. Everything is very bland almost and airy except for the face of this woman, creating contrast. All of this places emphasis on the woman's face, not even her entire head, just her face. He also uses texture to his advantage by making everything seem very soft and delicate.
