I like both Botticelli's and da Vinci's artwork for different reasons. One of the main reasons why I like Botticelli's artwork, is because Botticelli uses bright colors in his paintings which makes his artwork more colorful than da Vinci's, this however is more appealing to the eye.
As for da Vinci's paintings, my favorite is the Mona Lisa. In the Mona Lisa, da Vinci's shows his talent. I feel that da Vinci makes this piece of artwork so realistic, as if it were a photo. Also the facial expression on the Mona Lisa, is very unique. Its interesting because you don't know if she is smiling or frowning, i feel that da Vinci's work is a little more realistic than Botticelli's.
