Leonardo Da Vinci: Painter at the Court of Milan

13 December 2011

If you were one of the hundreds of art lovers unable to get a ticket for the Leonardo Da Vinci exhibition held at the National Gallery in London, don't despair. Unfortunately we cannot get you a ticket but we can get you the next best thing. Leonardo Da Vinci: Painter at the Court of Milan and this book is the perfect accompaniment to the exhibition Only 500 tickets to the exhibition are released each morning and the demand far exceeds the supply. So many people will be seriously disappointed to miss this unique "once in a lifetime" event. Da Vinci was a true genius, an artist, engineer, inventor and scientist, but the current exhibition focuses exclusively on the artist. Very few of his paintings have actually survived and this collection includes loans from galleries in Paris, Rome and St. Petersberg. One can only try to understand the logistics of transporting and installing these treasures.

 

The nine paintings on display include "The Virgin of The Rocks" both the National Gallery Version and the Louvre version, "St. Jerome" "The Lady with an Ermine" and a copy of "The Last Supper", and a collection of drawings. So it is unsurprising that with this glorious collection under one roof, something which is highly unlikely to occur again, is so popular.
The genius of Leonardo Da Vinci, the perfection, scale and fragility of his paintings, his exquisite drawings, his almost supernatural vision has always fascinated lesser mortals. In this book you can study them at your leisure and dwell on the perfection of every brushstroke. This book will become your own private exhibition. Demand for this book is high so make sure you get your copy as soon as possible.
We have a very comprehensive selection of books about Leonardo Da Vinci and these are just a few examples.
