Why, after the death of Leonardo da Vinci, did writers as diverse as Goethe, Valery, and Freud offer such passionate but differing interpretations of him? Turner plays off the facts of the artist's life (as we know them today) and shows how the cultural values and historical circumstances of each writer contributed to his understanding of Leonardo. Illustrations.
