"For lovers of art history, this lavishly illustrated and
well-written book is an absolute gem." - Italia! Magazine Leonardo
da Vinci was the epitome of the Renaissance humanist ideal, a
logical polymath of epic proportions who excelled and had interests
not just in art but in invention, anatomy, architecture,
engineering, literature, mathematics, music, science, astronomy and
more. His oeuvre is astounding and he is rightly famed for his
masterpieces of painting such as the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper,
and his astonishingly technical and graceful drawings. The
phenomenon that was Leonardo would not of course have flourished to
such an extent had it not been for the patronage and sponsorship of
the Medici family, who commissioned a large proportion of the art
and architecture of the era and fostered a fertile climate for
creativity. This sumptuous new book offers a broader view of this
master artist in the context of this environment, alongside the
work of other key artists who benefited from the Medicis, from
Brunelleschi through Donatello to Michelangelo and Raphael.
