The book is an exquisite and highly accessible overview of
all of Leonardo’s paintings, based on the latest expert research and
discoveries.
It is of critical importance to continually examine Da Vinci – this
epoch-defining human being – and the extraordinary artistic output of his
studio from a contemporary point of view. In an era that has become acutely
aware of the biases that history writing inherently possesses, this essay
offers a present-day perspective by offering an updated listing of Leonardo’s paintings
in the light of recent scholarly debates, particularly given the ever improving
technologies and scientific data that are increasingly becoming the benchmark
for the appraisal and investigation of art and culture.
