This is the first pocket-sized edition of Leonardo da Vinci's treatise on painting. The editor was a print maker who owned a print shop and saw the market for an affordable edition that would appeal to artists and art lovers. He reduced the engravings of human figures in movement to line drawings to reduce the cost.

Book Details

First Sentence

"THE young student should, in the first place, require a knowledge of perspective, to enable him to give to every object its proper dimensions: after which, it is requisite that he be under the care of an able master, to accustom him, by degrees, to a good style of drawing the parts."
