Seller's Description:
Very Good in Very Good jacket. pp. 506, ""It is a miracle that any one man should have observed, read, and written down so much in a single lifetime."-Kenneth ClarkPainter, sculptor, musician, scientist, architect, engineer, inventor...perhaps no other figure so fully embodies the Western Ideal of "Renaissance man" as Leonardo da Vinci. Leonardo was not… 4to.
The book has only black & white illustrations and these are mostly very faded and indistinct which is a pity for such a detailed work on Leonardo's anatomical drawings. I bought it hoping for much more clarity and for reproductions perhaps toned in a similar way to the originals but alas this was too much to hope for in a book from 1982. The descriptions for each illustration are excellent and quite technical. All in all a good record of the masters work but poor quality in the printing of each illustration.
