Title : Leonardo da Vinci - Serge Bramly - book
Summary :
Capable of developing a general theory of the world, solid, powerful, coherent, Leonardo da Vinci was undoubtedly the universal man of whom the Renaissance dreamed. The painter-sculptor was also a musician, engineer, architect, anatomist, astronomer, mathematician, director, writer, geologist… A visionary genius, he is said to have invented the airplane, the submarine, the bicycle, the violin. He was described as divine . There was something infinitely disturbing, in truth, in the multiplicity, the almost abnormal extent of his talents and qualities, because the author of the Mona Lisa astonished first of all by his charm, his humor, his physical strength and the beauty of his features. And on top of that, dandyish, extravagant. To recount the eventful life of Leonardo, Serge Bramly conducted the investigation; He followed the artist closely, observing him in his daily dealings with his rivals, his close friends, Botticelli, Michelangelo, Machiavelli... Thus emerges the fascinating portrait of a unique, exemplary man, in the chiaroscuro of an era like no other.
