This reaserch is to study to interpretate and appreciate works of art with the way of Iconography and Iconology which has been importantly treated in occidental art history. The aims of this study are not only heightening interests in education on art understanding and appreciation which has been negligently dealt with in art curriculum of our educational instutitions but also offering the way to appreciate correctly and profoundly works of art by accepting art-interpretating method of occidental artists. In this thesis, I researched Leonardo da Vinci's masterworks, " Mona Lisa" and "The Last Supper" issued in era of Renaissance in iconological appreach. Artistic characteristics and hidden story in a portrait, "Mona Lisa" have increased the value of work. Also a mural painting, "The Last Supper" is well known to everybody as outstanding work as of the day on account of the biblical significence in it up to now. . Until now, general art-appreciating methods in oriental countries and our country were "seeing objects" and "having feeling ". But, from now, there must be analystical process for implicated meanings as well as artist, historical background, composition, colors and form . I think that, in the school art education whose purpose is bringing up the man who is able to find objects having artistic value, to understand the artistic value and to respect the culture of art, the lesson for cultivating abilities to appreciate the works of art with iconological art-appreciating method should be treated as important as the lession in practice like creating works.
