Couverture rigide. Condition: Neuf. Edition originale. Paris 2014. -- New -- Clothbound & Dust Jacket. ( 31,3 x 24,5 cm )( 1925 gr ). ------ 281 pages.****************** "" The Lady with an Ermine had no ermine! Thanks to a new scientific imaging method, Pascal Cotte gives us this revelation, and 27 other discoveries, in his lat…est book. The work of this engineer, famous for having scanned the Mona Lisa radically change our view of the work of Leonardo da Vinci. This book on The Lady with an Ermine is the first to examine in depth the painting technique of Leonardo da Vinci and reveals the secrets of the creation of his paintings. One key to this work is the unprecedented discovery of a true small ermine hidden beneath the visible animal that we see today. We also discover that the first intention of the Master was to paint a classic portrait, without any animal. Probably at the instigation of the Duke of Milan, Leonardo may have altered its composition and later added an ermine then unsatisfied transformed it again. Is it not strange that in 1493 the first poem that describes this portrait does not mention the ermine, as this is an important element. This book provides an answer. Thanks to a revolutionary new technique, Pascal Cotte is able to analyse layer by layer all the superpositions of the brushstrokes. It is thus possible to reconstruct the whole story, all its genesis. From plank of wood, through all superimposed layers to the final appearance. Everything is analyzed rigorously and methodically. It also enables to reveal important details about the construction of the painting, the wanderings of the painter, his hesitations, his errors and changes. With pedagogy and respect for the reader, Pascal Cotte takes us on a tour quite exciting with simple and clear explanations. All these findings were previously invisible with traditional equipement of laboratories of museums. The author uses a new scientific method of analysis of pictorial works he invented and named L.A.M. for Layer Amplification Method. "" ************************ ref zvel ref att.

Add to basket1st edition. Fine paperback copy. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Literally as new. Physical description; 208 p.: ill. (some col.); 27 cm. Notes; Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary; In October 2009, a major artwork by Leonardo da Vinci was unco…vered. The 500 year-old portrait is one of the most extraordinary discoveries of our time. This is the story of how a team of experts - led by Professor Martin Kemp -pieced together the evidence, detailed historical research and technical analysis to follow a trail that leads back to the 15th Century. There is an element of mystery and an aura of mystical glamour that surrounds Leonardo. So when news of the discovery broke, it was met with astonishment, even disbelief. Here was a new work of art by a genius who left us astonishingly few - no more than a handful. Martin Kemp takes us on a journey of discovery recounting the steps he and Pascal Cotte took in authenticating the painting including the use of forensic methods usually reserved for criminal investigation. He recounts how experts matched a fingerprint found on La Bella Principessa to the great Renaissance master. This discovery throws new light on Leonardo da Vinci and his world. We learn the story of the girl who inspired the painting. The sitter, a beautiful young girl, displays a sense of melancholy and strength, a tender and fragile beauty. But who is she? By far the most likely candidate is the illegitimate daughter of Duke Ludovico Sforza. Martin Kemp tells, too, the tragic story of this princess who was to die when she was just fourteen years old. Previously changing hands for just GBP12,000, the painting is now thought to be worth something in the region of GBP150 million. As 'La Bella Principessa' (The Beautiful Princess) finally goes on display to the world, the people responsible for proving it is one of Leonardo da Vinci's tell the story of its discovery. Superbly researched and richly illustrated, La Bella Principessa reveals the Renaissance and its great master in a new light. Subjects; Leonardo da Vinci 1452-1519. - Bella principessa.

Fin connaisseur de l Italie où, jeune homme, il a longtemps séjourné, l empereur s est laissé gagné à la cause nationaliste autant par sa vieille fibre carbonariste que par l action de Cavour et de la belle comtesse de Castiglione. En 1859, il engage une armée de 120 000 hommes aux côtés des maigres forces piémontaises, et remporte sur les Autrichiens les succès décisifs de Magenta et Solférino. Pourtant, il s empresse de mettre un terme à la campagne. L effroyable carnage mais, surtout, le risque d une interposition prussienne l y invite. Les Italiens ne comprennent pas. Et leur perplexité vire au ressentiment quand, sous la pression des milieux cléricaux et de l'impératrice, Napoléon III refuse de faire évacuer Rome à ses soldats qui garantissent l'intégrité des Etats pontifcaux et, du même coup, retardent le parachèvement de l' unité de la péninsule. Pour prix de l épopée inachevée, la France s accumule néanmoins de Nice et de la Savoie. Outre une époustoufante galerie de peintures, l exposition présente pour la première fois la collection photographique du célèbre studio Alinari, véritable acte de baptême du photo-reportage.------.

Format in-4°( 31,3 x 24,5 cm )( 1925 gr ). ------ 281 pages.****************** Présentation éditeur : "" Ce livre sur La Dame à l Hermine est le premier à examiner en profondeur la techniqu…e picturale de Léonard de Vinci et à réveler l'ensemble du processus de création de ses peintures. Une des clefs de cet ouvrage est la découverte inédite d une véritable petite hermine cachée sous l animal visible aujourd hui. On découvre également que la première intention du Maître était de peindre un portrait classique, sans animal. Probablement, sous l impulsion du Duc de Milan, Léonard aurait modifié sa composition pour ajouter tardivement une hermine puis, insatisfait, l a à nouveau transformée. Voilà pourquoi le poème publié en 1493, qui décrit le portrait n'évoque pas l'hermine, pourtant tellement incontournable : elle n'avait pas encore été peinte. Grâce à une nouvelle technique révolutionnaire, l auteur analyse couche par couche toutes les superpositions des pigments. Il peut ainsi en reconstituer toute l histoire, établir sa genèse. De la planche de bois, en passant toutes les strates superposées jusqu à l aspect final. Tout est analysé avec rigueur et méthode. Il nous révèle également des détails importants sur la construction de la peinture, les errances du Peintre, ses hésitations, ses reprises et changements. Avec pédagogie et respect du lecteur, l auteur nous emmène dans une visite guidée tout à fait passionnante avec des explications simples et claires. Toutes ces découvertes étaient jusqu alors invisibles avec les moyens traditionnels d'imagerie de laboratoire. L auteur utilise une toute nouvelle méthode scientifique d analyse des uvres picturales qu il a inventée et baptisée L.A.M. pour Layer Amplification Method."" ************************ ref zvel ref att ref 53sd-fd ref 65-1/2 srm.
