I believe that Leonardo da Vinci meant that art can not be completed, but it can be left behind. By that he believes that art is not truly accomplished; goals are not really complete. I think that art is not complete but it is continued, even though it may be left by one person; another artist might take it up. A perfect example of this is the last supper; Giotto started it and Leonardo da Vinci continued it. It is still being re-made and edited on almost a daily basis. It is changed by people who find it on Google and adjust certain features such as: the lighting, discoloration, stains, smudges, and sizes. Art is in people’s imagination and as long as people think different things it will not end. Leonardo da Vinci was saying that as long as there are people dreaming a dream will continue, and when a painting is done the dream is over. I on the other hand believe that the dream or dreams can continue through other people.
