Leonardo da Vinci: Masterworks by Rosalind Ormiston

Leonardo da Vinci: Masterworks by Rosalind Ormiston

Famed for the Mona Lisa, The Last Supper, and his astonishing drawings, da Vinci excelled in a multitude of arenas. The patronage of the Medici family was key, and this sumptuous new book offers a view of the artist in this context, alongside the work of others who benefited from the Medici, from Brunelleschi to Michelangelo.
