The 1 New York Times Bestseller Walter Isaacson is not an art historian he's simply a lover of Leonardo who manages to communicate the sheer joy of this remarkable man' Books of the Year
- The Times Walter Isaacson keeps the mortal man to the fore For all his supernatural gifts as an artist & natural scientist Leonardo was resolutely human (illegitimate vegan in need of patrons) rather than the near deity of legend Isaacson is an assured guide to Leonardo's fallibility
- so many projects started so few completed
- as well as his extraordinary curiosity & his even more remarkable painterly skills that were sharpened by intense observation' Michael Prodger Books of the Year
- The Sunday Times' Infinitely curious easily distracted vain & vegetarian Leonardo is brought to vivid life in this accomplished biography'
- The Sunday Times 'an illuminating guide to the output of one of the last millennium's greatest minds'
- The Observer ' Isaacson doesn't claim to make any fresh discoveries but his book is intelligently organised simply written & beautifully illustrated' Book of the Day The Guardian ' Isaacson's scholarship is impressive-he cites not only primary sources but secondary materials by art critics essayists & da Vinci's other biographers This is a monumental tribute to a titanic figure'
- Publisher's Weekly"A powerful story of an exhilarating mind & lifea study in creativity how to define it how to achieve it"-The New Yorker" Vigorous insightful"-The Washington Post"A masterpiece"-San Francisco Chronicle" Luminous"-The Daily Beast ' To read this magnificent biography of Leonardo da Vinci is to take a tour through the life & works of one of the most extraordinary human beings of all time in the company of the most engaging informed & insightful guide imaginable Walter Isaacson is at once a true scholar & a spellbinding writer & what a wealth of lessons there are to be learned in these pages' David Mc Cullough The creator of Salvator Mundi (Saviour of the World) officially sold at auction in New York in November 2017 for the record-breaking sum of GBP341 million He was history's most creative genius What secrets can he teach us? Based on thousands of pages from Leonardo's astonishing notebooks & new discoveries about his life & 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 & an imagination so playful that it flirted with fantasy He produced the two most famous paintings in history The Last Supper & the Mona Lisa But in his own mind he was just as much a man of science & technology With a passion that sometimes became obsessive he pursued innovative studies of anatomy fossils birds the heart flying machines botany geology & weaponry His ability to stand at the crossroads of the humanities & 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 & then painted history's most memorable smile He explored the math of optics showed how light rays strike the cornea & produced illusions of changing perspectives in The Last Supper Isaacson also describes how Leonardo's lifelong enthusiasm for staging theatrical productions informed his paintings & 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 & at times heretical His life should remind us of the importance of instilling both in ourselves & our children not just received knowledge but a willingness to question it-to be imaginative & like talented misfits & rebels in any era to think different
