We learn of his encounters with the vast population that surrounds Leonardo: great and lesser academics, collectors and curators, devious dealers and unctuous auctioneers, major scholars and authors and pseudohistorians and fantasists; but also how he has grappled with swelling legions of 'Leonardo loonies', walked on the eggshells of vested interests in academia and museums, and fended off fusillades of non-Leonardos, sometimes more than one a week. Kemp leads us through his thinking on the Last Supper and the Mona Lisa, retells his part in the identification of the stolen Buccleuch Madonna and explains his involvement with and his theories on the two major Leonardo discoveries of the last 100 years, one of which plummeted into controversy (La Bella Principessa), while the other underwent a rapid ascent into widespread acceptance (Salvator Mundi). 600 00 $a Leonardo, $c da Vinci, $d 1452-1519 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 00 $a Leonardo, $c da Vinci, $d 1452-1519 $x Influence. 650 0 $a Art, Italian $y 15th century $x Themes, motives. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190202012013.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20180502010335.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2859602C4DCE11E89F5D1D5C97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
