Leonardo

by Martin Kemp

En esta obra se desbroza el denso manto de leyendas que existen en torno al más celebrado genio de todos los tiempos y pone en tela de juicio los mitos e interpretaciones que, basándose en suposiciones y prejuicios, tienden a falsear la historia de este hombre extraordinario. Esta fascinante exploración de la vida y la obra de Leonardo nos brinda penetrantes y excepcionales conclusiones sobre qué es lo que hizo tan especial a este hombre renacentista.
