He made this city his home for many years and he helped shape the cultural, architectural and artistic vision of this incredible and historical town! He lived 18 Years in the City and, during this time, he painted some of his most recognized and accomplished works of art, namely the iconic painting of “Last Supper” and helped develop the Naviglio Grande that, till this day, remains as the top water canal of the Lombardia Region. + see more CHURCH OF SANTA 1. MARIA DELLE GRAZIE Nex to the iconic “Mona Lisa” painting, that’s currently on exhibition at the Louvre Museum in Paris, the “Last Supper” it’s one of the main paintings of Da Vinci’s legacy. Today you can see this amazing masterpiece in Milan, namely at the iconic Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, TOUR IN MILAN TOUR that’s been the Home of this Masterpiece for decades. AMBROSIANA 2. ART GALLERY Another relic of Leonardo Da Vinci that’s still in exhibition in Milan is the Atlantic Code! For those who don’t know, the Atlantic Code is the corpus of Leonardo’s autograph manuscripts and is so called because of the size of its sheets, used at that time for the geographical atlases. Salone del Mobile 2019 | Salone del Mobile 2019 This relic includes a series of sketches, preparatory drawings for paintings, mathematical 1. calculations, philosophical meditations and even recipes. It’s a real journey through time and the ingenious mind of Leonardo da Vinci that’s currently in exhibition at the Ambrosiana Art Gallery. LEONARDO DA VINCI’S MUSEUM 3. OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY If you want to visit a Sanctuary dedicated to Leonardo Da Vinci’s work and life, then we highly recommend you pay a visit to the Leonardo da Vinci’s Museum of Science and Technology. Besides being a true Milanese classic, a trip to this Museum will allow you to discover and 2. 3. admire Leonardo’s drawings and projects, and to try to make scale models work from the projects of his inventions. It’s at this incredible museum that you’ll find a prototype of the iconic Flying Machines designed by Da Vinci! LEONARDO’S 4. VINNEYARD As we’ve told you previously, Da Vinci’s “Last Supper” is in exhibition at Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie. But what many people don’t know, is that Da Vinci lived very close to the Church where one of his stunning masterpieces is currently on display. That’s right, Da Vinci lived right in front 4. of the church at the 65 Corso Magenta ate Casa degli Atellani! The home belonged to the Atellans, a family that were courtiers of the historical Milanese citizen Ludovico Sforza, one of the patrons of Da Vinci. In 1948, the Atellani had a vineyard planted for Leonardo, who loved good wine and worldliness and loved this gift very much. That vine still exists and, today, it’s an important historical style. PADERNO 5. D’ADDA If you want to get the Inspiration Vibe of Da Vinci, then you need to step away from the City of Milan and visit the outskirts of the city! You must travel to Paderno d’Adda, a place where the River Adda flows. It’s in this stretch of river you can visit the places where Leonardo studied TOUR IN MILAN TOUR the rapids to find a way to transport the building materials by water despite that stretch was not navigable. Leonardo took inspiration from the landscapes of the Adda River for the backgrounds of his famous paintings “Virgin of the Rocks” or even “Mona Lisa”/ “Gioconda”. DUOMO 6. OF MILANO What about the Duomo? Well, the Duomo is Milan’s most Iconic building and it’s construction spanned for over 400 years! Some parts of the cathedral were designed during Da Vinci’s Salone del Mobile 2019 | Salone del Mobile 2019 lifetime, but surprisingly, Leonardo Da Vinci wasn’t involved in any part of the construction 5. process of this church, and none of his works can be found inside this architectonic wonder. It’s true that Leonardo made some drawings for the domed crossing tower but these never moved to the construction phase because, according to the local legends, Leonardo told his superiors that his plans and options where inferior to the ones provided by other two court architects: Amadeo and Dolcebuono. CITY 7. OF MILAN You won’t be able to see the Tributes that the City of Milan is preparing for Da Vinci to celebrate 6. 7. this Date during Salone del Mobile or the Milan Design Week because most of them will only start to happen in May (The Month that Leonardo Died)! But Milan is preparing a huge celebration and thought all the Summer you’ll be able to visit countless exhibits, expos and masterclasses about the painter! One of the big events of the programme is the return to Milan of the “Madonna Litta”, which the Hermitage Museum in St.Petersburg is loaning to the Poldi Pezzoli Museum for a special exhibition. SFORZA 8. CASTLE We end this Guide with Sforza Castle in central Milan! This is one of the historical sights of 8. Milan and it’s where we find another masterpiece of the master artist. He painted the famous Frescoed Ceiling of the “Sala delle Asse” (‘Room of the Wooden Panels’), combining a naturalist depiction with a strong symbolism! The Sforza Castle houses another important work by Leonardo: The Codex Trivulzianus. It’s a manuscript containing notes and drawings dealing mainly with military and religious architecture.

    Leonardo Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci (Anchiano, 15 aprile 1452 – Amboise, 2 maggio 1519) è stato un inventore, artista e scienziato italiano. Uomo d'ingegno e talento universale del Rinascimento, considerato uno dei più grandi geni dell'umanità, incarnò in pieno lo spirito della sua epoca, portandolo alle maggiori forme di espressione nei più disparati campi dell'arte e della conoscenza: fu infatti scienziato, filosofo, architetto, pittore, scultore, disegnatore, trattati sta, scenografo, anatomista, botanico, musicista, ingegnere e progettista. Nella bottega del Verrocchio Diventando ormai sempre più evidente l'interesse del giovane Leonardo nel "disegnare et il fare di rilievo, come cose che gl'andavano a fantasia più d'alcun'altra", ser Piero mandò infine il figlio, dal 1469 o 1470, nella bottega di Andrea del Verrocchio, che in quegli anni era una delle più importanti di Firenze, nonché una vera e propria fucina di nuovi talenti. Tra i suoi allievi figuravano nomi che sarebbero diventati i grandi maestri della successiva generazione, come Sandro Botticelli, Perugino, Domenico Ghirlandaio e Lorenzo di Credi, e la bottega espletava un'attività poliedrica, dalla pittura alle varie tecniche scultoree (su pietra, fusione a cera persa e intaglio ligneo), fino alle arti "minori". Soprattutto veniva stimolata la pratica del disegno, portando tutti i collaboratori a un linguaggio pressoché comune, tanto che ancora oggi può risultare molto difficile l'attribuzione delle opere uscite dalla bottega alla mano del maestro oppure a un determinato allievo. Si conoscono vari esempi di disegni di panneggi usciti dalla sua bottega, che derivano da esercizi che il maestro faceva fare copiando le pieghe dei tessuti sistemati su modelli di terra.

  • 500 Years After Leonardo Da Vinci's Death, His Genius Will Be On
    AiA Art News-service 500 Years After Leonardo da Vinci’s Death, His Genius Will Be on Display in Dozens of Exhibitions Around the World A worldwide celebration of the Renaissance master kicks off today in the UK. Sarah Cascone, January 31, 2019 Leonardo da Vinci, The Skull Sectioned (1489). Courtesy of the Royal Collection Trust. © Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II 2018. Today, a dozen museums across the UK are simultaneously opening “Leonardo da Vinci: A Life in Drawing,” an exhibition of the famed Renaissance artist’s work to mark the 500th anniversary his death, on May 2, 1519. The coordinated British exhibitions—which are part of a larger worldwide celebration of the artist, inventor, architect, and all -around genius—draw from the UK’s Royal Collection Trust, which has sent a dozen drawings from Windsor Castle to each of the 12 participating institutions. Leonardo made “more drawings than any artist of the period” and “more words in manuscripts than anyone from the period in any field,” Martin Clayton, the head of prints and drawings at the Royal Collection Trust, told The Art Newspaper. “You can grasp the whole Leonardo by looking at the drawings.” Leonardo da Vinci, The Head of Leda (circa 1505–08). Courtesy of the Royal Collection Trust/©Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II 2018. To determine which drawings went to which museums, the trust organized 12 batches of works, each balanced to reflect Leonardo’s wide range of interests, and had the institutions choose the sets at random. Highlights include Leonardo’s “invisible ink” works, a skull cross-section featuring his signature “mirror” writing, and two drapery studies for Salvator Mundi, now the most expensive painting ever sold.

  • A Multidisciplinary Study of the Tongerlo Last Supper 0722
    A Multidisciplinary Study of the Tongerlo Last Supper and its attribution to Leonardo da Vinci’s Second Milanese studio Jean-Pierre Isbouts, Fielding Graduate University, Santa Barbara, CA, and Christopher Brown, Brown Discoveries, LLC, North Carolina This article presents the findings from a two-year study of the Last Supper canvas in the Abbey of Tongerlo, Belgium, including a detailed review of its provenance as well as a digital analysis and multispectral study conducted by the Belgian company IMEC in the Spring of 2019. The design of the study is a composite multidisciplinary approach, with traditional connoisseurship and literary research being augmented by scientific examination, using new digital processing and multispectral imaging techniques. The article argues that based on the available evidence, the Tongerlo Last Supper was produced in Leonardo’s Milanese workshop between 1507 and 1509, as a collaborative project involving the Leonardeschi Giampietrino, Andrea Solario and Marco d’Oggiono under Leonardo’s supervision. Furthermore, the infrared spectography scans suggest that the face of John in the painting may have been painted by Leonardo himself. The study was funded by IMEC Belgium; Fielding Graduate University of Santa Barbara, CA; Brown Discoveries, LLC of North Carolina, and conducted with the gracious permission of the Premonstratensian Abbey of Tongerlo, Belgium. Key words: Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519); Last Supper; Technical Art History; Multispectral Imaging; the art of the Leonardeschi. Fig. 1. Studio of Leonardo da Vinci, Last Supper (after Leonardo), known as the Tongerlo copy, 1507-1509. Introduction For the last 450 years, the Tongerlo canvas of the Last Supper has been quietly occupying a wall in a chapel on the grounds of the Premonstratensian Abbey of Tongerlo near Westerlo, about an hour’s drive from the Belgian city of Antwerp.

  • Leonardo Da Vinci Art 485: Senior Seminar in Art History Wednesday Evenings 6:30-9:00
    Prof. Victor Coonin Office Hours: M-F 10:45-11:30 412 Clough, x3824 and by appointment [email protected] Leonardo da Vinci Art 485: Senior Seminar in Art History Wednesday Evenings 6:30-9:00 Art 485 is a senior seminar designed for senior art history majors to examine the discipline of art history by concentrating on a focused topic. Emphasis is placed on critical reading and writing, analysis of art and critical methodology through class discussion, formal presentations, and a substantial research paper. Course Objectives and Description This course will introduce students to advanced critical methods of art history through an extensive examination of Leonardo da Vinci. Students will be introduced to the artist, and consider current debates, scholarly issues, and even the effect of the artist on popular culture.
