　　莫奈(Claude Monet)

　　Monet's famous work "Impression: Sunrise" was not understood initially, since it seems peculiar for a large amount of blue was used as the major color for sunlight. However, this work eventually earned its reputation and had led to the name for impressionism.(难懂的作品也会得到承认) Monet did not find acclaim and wealth to later in his life and at times suffered through extreme poverty. Success also allowed him some degree of freedom in his work.(艺术家很贫穷)

　　达芬奇(Leonardo da Vinci)

　　Leonardo da Vinci trained as a painter during the Renaissance and became a true master of the craft. His amazing powers of observation and skill as an illustrator enabled him to notice and recreate the effects he saw in nature, and added a special liveliness to his portraits.

　　He had a keen eye and quick mind that led him to make important scientific discoveries, yet he never published his ideas.

　　He was a gentle vegetarian who loved animals and despised war, yet he worked as a military engineer to invent advanced and deadly weapons.

　　He was one of the greatest painters of the Italian Renaissance, yet he left only a handful of completed paintings.

　　All in all, Leonardo believed that the artist must know not just the rules of perspective, but all the laws of nature. The eye, he believed, was the perfect instrument for learning these laws, and the artist the perfect person to illustrate them. (艺术家创造的源泉)

　　Even a master like Leonardo was forced to sell out in order to support himself.
