We derive an optimal lower bound of the
interpolation error for linear finite elements on a bounded two-dimensional
domain. Using the supercloseness between the linear interpolant
of the true solution of an elliptic problem and its finite element
solution on uniform partitions, we further
obtain two-sided a priori bounds of the discretization error by means of the
interpolation error. Two-sided bounds for bilinear finite elements
are given as well. Numerical tests illustrate our theoretical
analysis.
