Et Léonard de Vinci réinvente la peinture, by Karim Ressouni-Demigneux

Why is a book, an exhibition or the discovery of a new drawing by Leonardo da Vinci still an event, five centuries after his death? Because Leonard was an extraordinary creator, a painter, an inventor, a thinker about art and humanity. Here, in 80 images, is the living account of his journey and the answers he brings with his brushes to the great mysteries of life.

The author, a specialist of the Italian Renaissance, reveals Leonardo da Vinci’s human, artistic and scientific commitment to this major art form that is painting. All his studies on the shadow, light or anatomy, his research to better document the world contribute to the challenge of his life: to paint as accurately as possible nature and humans. A great gift for drawing lovers, budding inventors and culture lovers.
