      abstract = {"This account provides an insight into the development of  Leonardo da Vinci's intellect and artistic vision. Taking  us on a journey through the entire span of his career, it  is a unique 'cultural biography', looking at the nature of  Leonardo's art and thought at key stages of his life, and  making sense of his manifold and diverse works in terms of  the underlying preoccupations and driving forces that they  reveal." "From his early training in Florence, through the  great works for which he is best known, to the supremely  powerful 'Deluge' drawings of his later years, Martin Kemp  gives a fully integrated picture of Leonardo's artistic,  scientific, and technological achievements." "Covering all  areas of his work, and illustrated throughout with over two  hundred illustrations including a wide range of Leonardo's  private manuscript sketches, Marvellous Works represents  the ultimate introduction to this central figure in western  art."--Jacket.},
