Taschen America Llc, 2011-08-29. paperback. Good. 8x2x11. 2011 Taschen (Cologne, Germany), two 8 5/8 x 11 3/8 inches tall paperbound volumes in color pictorial covers, 699 pp. Very slight rubbing, abrasions and edgewear to covers of Volume 1. Otherwise, a very good to near fine set - clean, bright and unmarked - in a moderately rubbed and edgeworn slipcase which has a one-inch split to one corner. Note that this is a heavy and oversized set, so additional postage will be required for international or priority orders. ~SP16~ [7.0P] Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) possessed one of the greatest minds of all time; his importance and influence are inestimable. This two-volume, midsize format comprehensive survey is the most complete book ever made on the subject of this Italian painter, sculptor, architect, engineer, scientist and all-around genius. With huge, full-bleed details of Leonardo's masterworks, this highly original publication allows the reader to inspect the subtlest facets of his brushstrokes. Part I explores Leonardo's life and work in ten chapters. All of his paintings are interpreted in depth, with The Annunciation and The Last Supper featured on large double-spreads. Part II comprises a catalogue raisonné of Leonardo's paintings, which covers all of his surviving and lost painted works and includes texts describing their states of preservation. Part III contains an extensive catalogue of his drawings (numbering in the thousands, they cannot all be reproduced in one book); 663 are presented, arranged by category (architecture, technical, anatomical, figures, proportion, cartography, etc)., Taschen America Llc, 2011-08-29, 2.5<
