世纪顶级的三幅名画分别是《蒙娜丽莎》、《繁星之夜》、《最后的晚餐》。其中《蒙娜丽莎》被称为世界第一名画，它不仅是第一次系统使用晕画法、人体透视和解剖学所作的画作，而且是在中世纪这样一个神权宗教思想极为浓厚的环境下第一次画一个普通人，因此有着里程碑式的意义。

The top three paintings of the century are Mona Lisa, starry night and the last supper. Among them, Mona Lisa is known as the world's first famous painting. It is not only the first time to use halo painting, human perspective and anatomy, but also the first time to draw an ordinary person in the middle ages, which is a milestone.

1. 《蒙娜丽莎》

1. Mona Lisa

《蒙娜丽莎》的奇妙之处就是不管站在那个角度，都感觉蒙娜丽莎的眼睛是看着你的，其实这就是人体解剖学运用到极致的体现，此外还有很多秘密藏在蒙娜丽莎的微笑之谜中。而且这也是达芬奇第一次采用边缘模糊的渐变法打造出了一种烟雾效果，从而才能产生一种朦胧的美感。据说当时达芬奇都会一直将它带在身边，这也是他最喜欢的一幅画。

The wonder of "Mona Lisa" is that no matter what angle you stand, you feel that the eyes of Mona Lisa are looking at you. In fact, this is the embodiment of the extreme application of human anatomy. In addition, there are many secrets hidden in the mystery of Mona Lisa's smile. And this is the first time that Da Vinci used the gradient method of fuzzy edge to create a smog effect, so as to produce a hazy aesthetic feeling. It is said that Da Vinci always took it with him at that time, which is also his favorite painting.

要知道《蒙娜丽莎》作为世界顶级的三幅名画之首的价值到底有多珍贵，其实从很多侧面都能够看出，比如曾经意大利想要用一整座米兰城换回《蒙娜丽莎》，但被法国严厉拒绝。而且《蒙娜丽莎》被觊觎的次数也是很多的，虽然在卢浮宫中是按照最高规格来进行保护的，但也曾经被盗，后来一度流传到意大利，法国想要赎回的时候，竟然开价34亿2000万欧元，不过世界第一名画毕竟是无价之宝，这个价格也可以理解的。

To know how valuable the Mona Lisa is as the first of the world's top three famous paintings, it can be seen from many aspects. For example, Italy once wanted to exchange the whole city of Milan for the Mona Lisa, but it was severely rejected by France. Moreover, the Mona Lisa has been coveted many times. Although it was protected according to the highest standard in the Louvre, it was also stolen. Later, it was spread to Italy. When France wanted to redeem it, it offered a price of 3.420 billion euros. However, the world's first famous painting is priceless, and the price is understandable.

2. 《繁星之夜》

2. Starry night

梵高作为后印象主义画派的开拓者之一，这副《繁星之夜》几乎可以说是他的巅峰之作，曾经有现代画作专家为其估值两亿美金，但显然作为世界顶级的三幅名画之一，《繁星之夜》的价值已经远远不止于此。《繁星之夜》是梵高在精神病院时所作，运用了极为夸张的表现手法，以一种强烈的混合色彩，表现出脱离现实的星空月夜的场景，可以看得出来他的画作并非纯印象主义那样晦涩难懂，但也并非写实注意那样拘谨，所以说这幅画几乎算得上是后印象派的转折里程碑。

As one of the pioneers of post impressionist painting school, Van Gogh's starry night is almost his pinnacle. It was once valued at US $200 million by modern painting experts, but obviously, as one of the top three paintings in the world, the value of starry night is far beyond that《 The night of stars was written by Van Gogh when he was in the mental hospital. It uses an extremely exaggerated technique of expression, and uses a strong mixed color to show the scene of the starry sky and moonlit night divorced from reality. It can be seen that his paintings are not as obscure as pure Impressionism, but also not as formal as realistic attention, So this painting is almost a milestone of Post Impressionism.

3. 《最后的晚餐》

3. The last supper

这幅画同样是由画作大师达芬奇所作，作为世界顶级的三幅名画之一，《最后的晚餐》虽然看起来只是简单的描绘了《圣经》中耶稣和十二门徒的圣餐场景，但实际上仔细观察细节就会发现，达芬奇巧妙的将和谐的“圣餐”场面和邪恶的门徒“背叛”融合在了一个场景，可以说看完这幅画就像讲了一个完整的故事，这种创造力可以说是史无前例的。

This painting was also painted by Leonardo da Vinci. As one of the top three famous paintings in the world, the last supper seems to simply depict the Holy Communion scene of Jesus and the twelve disciples in the Bible, but in fact, if you look at the details carefully, you will find that, Leonardo da Vinci skillfully integrated the harmonious "Holy Communion" scene and the evil disciples "betrayal" into one scene. It can be said that reading this painting is like telling a complete story. This kind of creativity can be said to be unprecedented.
