📖 The Scoop
Today, only about fifteen works are reliably credited to Leonardo da Vinci, and most of these are in private collections, out of public view. What's more, in his own time Leonardo's reputation was vastly overshadowed by the work of his rivals, Raphael and Michelangelo, prompting him to spend his last years in France in relative obscurity. This, then, is the great mystery of Leonardo's legacy: if his tangible output was so limited, how was his radically innovative style inserted into the bloodstream of Italian art and Western painting as a whole? And how did his mystique as a solitary genius survive five centuries of European history, and continue to fascinate us in modern times? This book is the first to unravel this mystery by cutting a broad swath through the Renaissance, the Baroque, and Early Modern art, in an effort to discover how this elusive 16th century genius would exerted such an exceptional influence on Western civilization.
