Leonardo Da Vinci PRASA BALTYCKA

Literatura obcojęzyczna

'Isaacson's scholarship is impressive-he cites not only primary sources but secondary materials by art critics, essayists, and da Vinci's other biographers. This is a monumental tribute to a titanic figure.' - Publisher's Weekly 'To read this magnificent biography of Leonardo da Vinci is to take a tour through the life and works of one of the most extraordinary human beings of all time in the company of the most engaging, informed, and insightful guide imaginable. Walter Isaacson is at once a true scholar and a spellbinding writer. And what a wealth of lessons there are to be learned in these pages.' David McCullough Based on thousands of pages from Leonardo's astonishing notebooks and new discoveries about his life and work, Walter Isaacson weaves a narrative that connects his art to his science. He shows how Leonardo's genius was based on skills we can improve in ourselves, such as passionate curiosity, careful observation, and an imagination so playful that it flirted with fantasy. He produced the two most famous paintings in history, The Last Supper and the Mona Lisa. But in his own mind, he was just as much a man of science and technology. With a passion that sometimes became obsessive, he pursued innovative studies of anatomy, fossils, birds, the heart, flying machines, botany, geology, and weaponry. His ability to stand at the crossroads of the humanities and the sciences, made iconic by his drawing of Vitruvian Man, made him history's most creative genius. His creativity, like that of other great innovators, came from having wide-ranging passions. He peeled flesh off the faces of cadavers, drew the muscles that move the lips, and then painted history's most memorable smile. He explored the math of optics, showed how light rays strike the cornea, and produced illusions of changing perspectives in The Last Supper. Isaacson also describes how Leonardo's lifelong enthusiasm for staging theatrical productions informed his paintings and inventions. Leonardo's delight at combining diverse passions remains the ultimate recipe for creativity. So, too, does his ease at being a bit of a misfit: illegitimate, gay, vegetarian, left-handed, easily distracted, and at times heretical. His life should remind us of the importance of instilling, both in ourselves and our children, not just received knowledge but a willingness to question it-to be imaginative and, like talented misfits and rebels in any era, to think different.

Leonardo da Vinci's reputation as an inventor and scientist, and the complexity of his creativity and personality, have sometimes almost overshadowed the importance of his aims and techniques as a painter. This catalogue focuses on a crucial period in the 1480s and '90s when, as a salaried court artist to Duke Ludovico Sforza in the city-state of Milan, freed from the pressures of making a living in the commercially-minded Florentine republic, Leonardo produced some of the most celebrated - and influential - work of his career. "The Last Supper", his two versions of "The Virgin of the Rocks", and the beautiful portrait of Cecilia Gallerani, Ludovico's mistress ("The Lady with an Ermine") were paintings that set a new standard for his Milanese contemporaries. Leonardo's style was magnified, through collaboration and imitation, to become the visual language of the regime, and by the time of his return to Florence in 1500, his status was utterly transformed. "Works from British, US and European" collections represent the diverse range of Leonardo's artistic output, from drawings in chalk, ink or metalpoint to full-scale oil paintings.Together with the authors' meticulous research and detailed analysis, they demonstrate Leonardo's consummate skill and extraordinary ambition as a painter. This catalogue accompanies the major exhibition 'Leonardo da Vinci: Painter at the Court of Milan' at the National Gallery, London: 9 November 2011 - 5 February 2012.

Leonardo i Ostatnia Wieczerza - Ross King

Książki & Multimedia > Książki

Opis - W 1495 roku Leonardo da Vinci zaczął jedno z najbardziej wpływowych dzieł sztuki w dziejach Ostatnią Wieczerzę. Po dekadzie spędzonej na dworze Lodovico Sforzy, hrabiego Mediolanu, Leonardo był w punkcie zero: w wieku 43 lat nie dokonał, pomimo stworzenia wielu prestiżowych dzieł, niczego, co naprawdę byłoby warte jego nadzwyczajnych umiejętności. Jego ostatnią klęską był gigantyczny koń z brązu odlany na cześć ojca Lodovica, zrobiony z materiału skonfiskowanego przez wojsko. Zlecenie namalowania Ostatniej Wieczerzy miało być kompensatą tej porażki, choć szanse na jej ukończenie nie były wielkie: Leonardo nigdy nie pracował nad tak dużym obrazem i nie miał doświadczenia z techniką malowania ściennego freskiem. Pośród wojny oraz politycznego i religijnego chaosu wokół niego, nękany przez swoje własne niepewności i frustracje, Leonardo tworzy arcydzieło, które na zawsze go określi. Ross King ujawnia dziesiątki historii, które są osadzone w tym obrazie, i unieważnia wiele dotyczących go mitów. Przywołując fascynujący okres w europejskiej historii, przedstawia wizerunek jednego z największych geniuszy w historii poprzez opowieść o jego sławnym dziele. Nazwa - Leonardo i Ostatnia Wieczerza Oryginalny tytuł - Leonardo and the Last Supper Autor - Ross King Oprawa - Twarda Wydawca - Noir Sur Blanc Kod ISBN - 9788365613110 Kod EAN - 9788365613110 Wydanie - 1 Rok wydania - 2017 Język - polski Tłumacz - Fedyszak Marek Format - 15.7x24.1 Ilość stron - 440 Podatek VAT - 5% Premiera - 2017-03-02

Leonardo's Swans Cornerstone

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Sisters. Rivals. And the love of one man. Isabella and Beatrice d'Este are as different as night and day. Wordly and ambitious, Isabella's beauty and intellect are legendary across the courts of Europe, while her younger sister, a tomboy, prefers horses and the hunt. When Isabella is betrothed to the Marquis of Mantua, all her ambitions seem to come true - until Beatrice marries Ludovico, the powerful Duke of Milan. Suddenly, Isabella finds herself drawn to her sister's husband, a man as charismatic as he is dangerous. Once close, the sisters are now fierce rivals, for Ludovico's affections but also for the larger prize, to be immortalized by Milan's court painter, Leonardo da Vinci. Da Vinci's glittering genius is at its zenith, with such masterpieces as "The Last Supper" and the "Mona Lisa", but he constantly struggles not to let his noble patrons' incessant demands compromise his own artistic vision. Meanwhile, the black clouds of war are looming on the horizon. As Ludovico's gamble for power in Western Europe begins to fall apart, the sisters must choose - between passion and family, loyalty and survival.
