About
A compact, affordable introduction to Leonardo da Vinci, revealing his works in stunning close-up detail
The Mona Lisa, The Last Supper, Lady with an Ermine—these and other masterpieces are just part of why Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519) is considered one of the greatest artists of all time. A true Renaissance man, da Vinci was active in fields as diverse as astronomy, painting, sculpture, science, mathematics, engineering, cartography, and architecture. His painting was based on a deep understanding of the workings of the human body and the physics of light and shade. Here, in full and in stunning full-page close-up details, are the mere two dozen works that are attributed to the Florentine master, along with clear, insightful text by art historian Stefano Zuffi.
