Paper Summary:
This paper discusses Sherwin B. Nuland's book, "Leonardo da Vinci", explaining that it is a very unusual book in the genre of art books, or, more specifically, books about artists. The paper also tells us that, while such books are usually written by art critics, art historians, or even artists themselves (such as Judy Chicago), this book is written by someone who does not lay claim to any artistic sensibilities whatsoever. Rather, Nuland comes to this work with the background of being a surgeon and a best-selling author. Nevertheless, Penguin's choice of this unusual author for its Penguin Lives series is appropriate. This paper explains why.More papers on Sherwin B. Nuland's "Leonardo Da Vinci":
