"Leonardo da Vinci and the Ethics of Style" brings together a
distinguished group of experts on Leonardo and the Renaissance,
examining the ethical underpinnings of art history. The seven
essays articulate the complexity of ways in which style involved
ethical considerations during the early modern period, and still
involves us in its conundrums.
Looking at individual works and concepts, this fascinating
collection covers subjects such as Leonardo's understanding of his
role as a painter as that of a natural philosopher, his interests
in visual perception and the understanding of visual sensations by
the mind, how and why Leonardo's ideas on painting are at the core
of art theory, how Leonardo addresses style in gendered terms, and
'style' as the historian's projection.
This volume will be of great interest to all those studying or
with an enthusiasm for Renaissance art history, art theory,
cultural studies and philosophy.
