Firenze 3880 del 07.07.90 HUMAN EVOLUTION Vol. 31 n.3 (125-131) - 2016 Using New Anthropological and Biological Tools to Learn about Leonardo da Vinci INTRODUCTION J. Ausubel Vice Chairman, Richard Lounsbery Foundation, 1020 19th St NW # Ll60, Washington, DC 20036, USA. His life marked the rebirth of Western civilization, but no gravestone marks with certainty the final resting place of Leonardo da Vinci. Now using modern techniques, an- thropologists and geneticists are seeking Leonardo’s remains not simply to mark the spot but also to study and better understand his remarkable abilities and talents. The work underway resembles in complexity recent projects such as the exhumation and reburial of Leonardo’s English contemporary, King Richard III, in March 2015 some 500 years after his death. Like Richard, Leonardo was born in 1452, and like Richard he was given a Chris- tian burial in a setting that underwent changes in subsequent years such that the exact location of the grave became lost. And this is where science and technology come to the aid of history. In November 2014 an international team of specialists embarked on the first phase of a project to identify conclusively the alleged remains of Leonardo da Vinci at Am- boise Castle in the Loire Valley southwest of Paris. They aim to compare DNA yet to be found there with the DNA of Leonardo’s father and several close relatives whose remains are buried in Florence, and possibly his mother, in Milan. They hope to acquire an extensive enough genetic profile to understand better his abilities and visual acuity. The project brings together experts from France, Italy, Spain, the United States, and Canada. Participating organizations include the Institut de Paléontologie Humaine in Paris, the International Institute for Humankind Studies in Florence, the Laboratory of Molecular Anthropology and Paleogenetics at the Biology Department of the University of Florence, Museo Ideale Leonardo Da Vinci in Vinci, J. Craig Venter Institute in La Jolla, California, Laboratory of Genetic Identification at the University of Granada, and the Rockefeller University in New York. Initial support comes from the Richard Lounsbery Foundation in Washington D.C. Work proceeds along several fronts from Leonardo’s family tomb in Florence, to Leonardo’s presumed remains at Amboise Castle, and to Milan where there might be the remains of Leonardo’s mother, Caterina. Team members are also pursuing traces of 126 AUSUBEL her children by a later marriage. The study team plans to verify whether DNA extracted from the remains at Amboise Castle matches that of remains from Florence and possibly

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT This thesis examines a group of terracotta sculptures attributed to an artist known as the Master of the Unruly Children. The name of this artist was coined by Wilhelm von Bode, on the occasion of his first grouping seven works featuring animated infants in Berlin and London in 1890. Due to the distinctive characteristics of his work, this personality has become a mainstay of scholarship in Renaissance sculpture which has focused on identifying the anonymous artist, despite the physical evidence which suggests the involvement of several hands. Chapter One will examine the historiography in connoisseurship from the late nineteenth century to the present and will explore the idea of the scholarly “construction” of artistic identity and issues of value and innovation that are bound up with the attribution of these works.
