118. Title & Author: Leonardo da Vinci by Frank Zöllner (94 pages)Genre: Nonfiction--Art History
Completed: 10 October 2009
Summary & Review:
The life and career of Leonard da Vinci are concisely covered, including his days as apprentice to Verrochio and his time in Milan. Included with the history are numerous color images of his paintings, sketches, and studies.
Zöllner's insights and comments were interesting and enlightening. While the book was fairly short and there was no time for Zöllner to fully expound on Leonardo's immense range of interests and doings, it was still an intriguing glimpse into the life and career of my favorite artist.
