  • Léonard De Vinci
    Léonard de Vinci Léonard de Vinci (Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci écouter, dit Leonardo da VinciNote 2), né à Vinci (Toscane) le 15 avril 1452 et mort à Amboise (Touraine) le 2 mai 1519, est un peintre Léonard de Vinci florentin et un homme d'esprit universel, à la fois artiste, organisateur de spectacles et de fêtes, scientifique, ingénieur, inventeur, anatomiste, peintre, sculpteur, architecte, urbaniste, botaniste, musicien, poète, philosophe et écrivain. Après son enfance à Vinci, Léonard est élève auprès du célèbre peintre et sculpteur florentin Andrea del Verrocchio. Ses premiers travaux importants sont réalisés au service du duc Ludovic Sforza à Milan. Il œuvre ensuite à Rome, Bologne et Venise et passe les dernières années de sa vie en France, à l'invitation du roi François Ier. Léonard de Vinci est souvent décrit comme l’archétype et le symbole de l’homme de la Renaissance, un génie universel, un philosophe humaniste, observateur et expérimentateur, avec un « rare don de l’intuition de l’espace »Note 3, et dont la curiosité infinie est seulement égalée par la force d’invention2. Nombre d'auteurs et d'historiens le considèrent comme l'un des plus grands peintres de tous les temps et certains comme la personne la plus talentueuse dans le plus grand nombre de domaines différents ayant jamais vécuNote 4, Note 5. C'est d'abord comme peintre que Léonard de Vinci est reconnu. Deux de ses œuvres, La Joconde et La Cène, sont des peintures mondialement célèbres, souvent copiées et parodiées2, et son dessin de l’Homme de Vitruve est également repris dans de nombreux travaux dérivés.

  • The Lost Manuscripts of Leonardo Da Vinci
    THE LOST MANUSCRIPTS OF LEONARDO DA VINCI A history of Leonardo da Vinci’s manuscripts and a calculation of how many remain lost by RICHARD SHAW POOLER Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF LITERATURE AND PHILOSOPHY in the subject of ART HISTORY at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA Promoter: Prof Bernadette Van Haute -------------------------------------- OCTOBER 2014 DECLARATION I declare that THE LOST MANUSCRIPTS OF LEONARDO DA VINCI is my own work and that all the sources that I have used or quoted have been indicated or acknowledged by means of complete references. ……………………………. Richard Shaw Pooler Date ………………………….. Title: THE LOST MANUSCRIPTS OF LEONARDO DA VINCI A history of Leonardo da Vinci’s manuscripts and a calculation of how many remain lost Summary: This thesis investigates the history of Leonardo da Vinci’s manuscripts, explains the recovery of some of those that were lost, and calculates what proportion of his work remains lost. It does this by researching the following four main topics: the compilation of his manuscripts; the dispersal and loss of his manuscripts; the recovery and reconstruction of some manuscripts; and an estimate of what remains lost. Most of Leonardo’s manuscripts were written in the last thirty years of his life. The first part of this thesis traces which manuscripts were written and when. After his death, his manuscripts dispersed and it is not known how many were lost. The next section details the dispersal. Recovery of some manuscripts took place followed by further dispersal and loss. Part of the recovery was due to key collectors such as Pompeo Leoni.

  • Archivio Storico Civico Biblioteca Trivulziana
    Archivio Storico Civico Biblioteca Trivulziana Leonardo da Vinci’s Notebook at the Sforza Castle A significant episode of Milanese collecting Leonardo da Vinci’s Notebook (Codex Trivulzianus 2162) is a paper manuscript, small in size, dating back to 1487-1490 during the artist’s first stay in Milan, in which the artist drew physiognomic sketches, architectural drafts for the Duomo and other Milanese buildings, and also mechanical sketches and designs for war machines. On seven of the pages there are drawings made using a metal stylus that are clearly visible when the pages are illuminated at a low angle. In some cases the impressions have been drawn over, imprecisely, by another hand. The manuscript is distinctive for its long lists of words written in Leonardo’s characteristic cursive script from right to left. The lists record the artist’s attempt to enrich his vocabulary with words of Latin origin, so as to make his scientific writings appear more authoritative and so as to be able to better grasp the writings of other humanists and men of science. After the death of the artist, the Notebook was left to his pupil Francesco Melzi. Together with other Leonardo’s manuscripts, the Notebook came into the possession of Pompeo Leoni. In 1632 it was acquired by Galeazzo Arconati, who then donated it to the Biblioteca Ambrosiana in 1637, taking it back at a later date in exchange for another of Leonardo’s writings, Manuscript D. All traces of the codex are lost until the mid-18th century, when Don Carlo Trivulzio (1715-1789) bought it from Don Gaetano Caccia of Novara in exchange for a second-hand “silver repeating clock”.

    Response to « interesting? » Submitted by Arash_Yavari on Wed, 2008-04-16 05:00. Michele CIAVARELLA, Ecole Polytechnique. I am shocked that you say Leonardo, Mandelbrot and Feynman (and Bui) are "trivial history". I start from Leonardo. Today I have no time to go on with Mandelbrot, Feynman, and Bui. But I promise later I will. Maybe you should consider that Leonardo did not publish anything. You may well see most of the 500 years of "history of mechanics" already contained in his codes! Leonardo da Vinci (b April 15, 1452 in Vinci, Florence, in present-day Italy, and d. May 2, 1519 aged 67 in Amboise, Indre-et-Loire, in present-day France). It may seem surprising the reference to this man, dead already almost 500 years ago, in a site which attempts to classify science by papers. Leonardo doesn't have citations! But did you forget Leonardo was ahead of his time 500 years at least? Who between the Timoshenko medallist is 500 years ahead of his time? Probably agrees with me also one of the richest and most innovative man of our times, Bill Gates, if he bought one of Leonardo's Codex Leicester in 1994 for $30.8 million, making it the most expensive book ever. I don't know if he ever read ANY of the Timoshenko medallist papers, not even for free! At more recent prices, and considering there are other 9 codes1, we can imagine that the order of magnitude of their “market value” is close to a $1 billion. And this is only the codes! That the value of these old books with machines and drawings certainly today not state-of-the-art in technology is surprising.

    FILARETE’S BODY: Unpacking the Pregnancy analogy in the Renaissance Patronage Context Berrin Terim Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture and Design Research Paul Emmons Donald Kunze Marcia Feuerstein Jaan Holt April 22, 2021 Alexandria, Virginia Keywords: patronage anthropomorphism disegno generation architecture © 2021 by Berrin Terim FILARETE’S BODY: Unpacking the Pregnancy analogy in the Renaissance Patronage Context Berrin Terim ABSTRACT Fifteenth century Florentine architect Il Filarete authored the first illustrated book on architecture, with a distinct pedagogical agenda to teach his patron to build nobly. Written as a dialogical narrative, taking place between a patron and his architect, the treatise’s pedagogical tone unfolds as a form of storytelling about the design and construction of an ideal city. Despite its miscellaneous aspects embedded in the book, which differentiates it significantly from the architectural treatises belonging to the Western cannon, the author stresses his role as an architect, and proposes an unprecedented analogy to define the role of the architect (his profession) in regards to building practice [edificare]. Extending the Vitruvian body topos under the influence of Civic Humanism to an organic anthropomorphism, Filarete bases the generation of a building on similar grounds to human generation, through which he defines gender-specific roles to the patron (male agent) as the father of the building, and the architect (female agent) as its mother. This generally known analogy, although it has been frequently mentioned, was not taken as a clue that can pertain to the essence of architectural production in the Renaissance patronage context.
