Don’t miss your opportunity to own this rare vintage collectable hardcover art book titled LEONARDO DA VINCI, published by Dr. George Luettke Verlag. GERMAN EDITION, 2. Auflage 2nd edition. It was published 1939 in Berlin during the Nazi era.
Size of Book:13” x 16”, (41 cm x33 cm)
It is a vintage, almost antique book, so the pages are slightly yellowish, as would be expected.
This wonderful, collectable art book is a treasure which would grace the coffee table of any bibliophile interested in art and history.
This 516 page volume features amazing reproductions of over 600 of Leonardo’s drawings and sketches of anatomical studies, complex engineering, designs, and numerous portraits.
Some of the sketches illustrate one of Da Vinci’s famous quotes: “Art is never finished, only abandoned”.
Da Vinci’s interest in flight inspired his most famous invention – the flying machine. Though the first actual helicopter wasn't built until the 1940s, it is believed that Leonardo da Vinci's sketches from the late fifteenth century detailed a predecessor to the modern-day flying machine.
