Paragone
Paragone (Italian: paragone , meaning comparison), is a debate 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. Michelangelo's treatise on the superiority of sculpture is a famous response to Leonardo's treatise.[citation needed]. Vasari argues that drawing is the father of all arts, and as such, the most important one.[1]
