The Mona Lisa fascinates all those who come to see her at the Louvre Museum. And yet, the Louvre is home to other master works by Leonardo: The Virgin of the Rocks, Saint John the Baptist and the Virgin and Child with Saint Anne, which the kings of France - from the time of Louis XII - took pleasure in collecting.
These extraordinary paintings are complemented by a worthy collection of drawings. From silverpoint, sanguine, pen, to black crayon, all the techniques of Leonardo’s art are represented.
Through the pages of this book, the genius of one of the greatest Renaissance men is traced.
This album serves as an indispensible guide to this fascinating collection.
