Leonardo: Discoveries From Verrocchio's Studio: Early Paintings and New Attributions

A fresh detective story of young Leonardo

If you love art history that actually changes the conversation, this feels thrilling rather than dusty. It digs into Leonardo before the legend fully formed, showing how collaboration, technique, and close-looking can reshape what we think we know. Readers who enjoy scholarship with a sense of discovery will find it especially rewarding.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Presents exciting, original conclusions about Leonardo da Vinci’s early life as an artist and amplifies his role in Andrea del Verrocchio’s studio. This groundbreaking reexamination of the beginnings of Leonardo da Vinci’s life as an artist suggests new candidates for his earliest surviving work and revises our understanding of his role in Verrocchio’s workshop, where most works were collaborative and where Leonardo likely learned tempera painting. The book searches for the young artist’s hand among the tempera works from Verrocchio’s studio and proposes new criteria for judging Verrocchio’s own painting style. Several paintings are identified here as likely the work of Leonardo, while others long considered works by Verrocchio or his assistant Lorenzo di Credi may now be seen as collaborations with Leonardo sometime before his departure from Florence in 1482/83. In addition to Laurence Kanter’s detailed arguments, the book features three essays presenting recent scientific analysis and imaging that support the new attributions of paintings, or parts of paintings, to Leonardo. Distributed for the Yale University Art Gallery exhibition (06/29/18–10/07/18).
