Leonardo
Da Vinci: The Complete Paintings
by Pietro C. Marani, Leonardo
In this magnificent book, Pietro Marani, the director of the project
to restore Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper, presents all the artist's known
paintings. The history and significance of each are analyzed at length:
we read, for example, that "from a very early date, Mona Lisa was considered
among Leonardo's most extraordinary accomplishments, one that made every
other artist 'tremble and lose heart.'" .... From its enigmatic cover (the
lips of the artist's exquisite portrait of Ginevra de' Benci) to its extensive
bibliography, Leonardo da Vinci comes the closest this reviewer has seen
to being the ultimate art book. --John Stevenson, Amazon.com

Fortune Is a River : Leonardo Da Vinci and Niccolo Machiavelli's
Magnificent Dream to Change the Course of Florentine History
by Roger D. Masters
History is sometimes made by seemingly insignificant moments that turn
out to have been pivotal in hindsight--and sometimes what didn't happen
proves to be as important as what did. One such moment came in the Florentine
court of Cesare Borgia, when a civil servant named Niccolò
Machiavelli recruited a local engineer named Leonardo da Vinci to devise
a plan to change the course of the Arno River. Diverting that river, Machiavelli
reasoned, would deprive Florence's enemy, the nearby city-state of Pisa,
of a dependable water supply. Amazon.com
