About This Item
"Leonardo called his notebooks 'a collection without order taken from many papers which I have copied here, hoping afterward to arrange them in order, each in its place, according to the subjects treated of.' He died before he could carry out this plan. Now more than 400 years after his death, the contemplated arrangement has been made in a manner which Leonardo would surely have approved. The notebooks thus reveal the philosopher, scientist, painter, sculptor, astronomer, architect, geographer, inventor, musician, 'perhaps the most richly gifted by nature among all the sons of men'." Two volumes: 655, 640 pages, 64 plates; 26 cm. A few rough openings; a very few pencil marks; minor smudges on dust jackets; Very Good in sturdy linen-covered slipcase. Stock#ofc0656.
