Quotes by Francesca Fiorani  (?)

“The good painter should paint two main things, and these are man and the intention of his mind [concetti della mente sua]; while the first is easy, the second is difficult, because it has to be captured through the gestures and the movements of the limbs, and these should be learned from mutes, who better actualize them than any other sort of man.”
Francesca Fiorani, The Shadow Drawing: How Science Taught Leonardo How to Paint

“Put more simply, they did not see art the way we do. They read art in a way we no longer can.”
Francesca Fiorani, The Shadow Drawing: How Science Taught Leonardo How to Paint

“This integrated approach to painting, philosophy, and science lay at the heart of Leonardo’s project. And yet we find it easier to simply marvel at the work of “his hand” than to understand this work as the lost way of comprehending the world that it in fact is.”
Francesca Fiorani, The Shadow Drawing: How Science Taught Leonardo How to Paint
