Paragone



Paragone (Italian: paragone, meaning comparison), is a literary form from the Italian Renaissance in which one form of art (architecture, sculpture or painting) is championed as superior to all others. Leonardo da Vinci's treatise on painting, noting the difficulty of painting and supremacy of sight is a noted example.
