The Romance of Leonardo da Vinci : The Forerunner

This is a very interesting edition of "The Romance of Leonardo da Vinci" by Dmitri Merejcovski (Воскресшие боги. Леонардо да Винчи /1900) . Illustrated by Leonardo Da Vinci. Translated from the russian by Bernard Guilbert Guerney - The Heritage Reprints '-' At the turn of the 20th century a brilliant Russian writer, Dmitri Merejkowski, wrote this novel, "The Romance of Leonardo Da Vinci," a profound meditation on art and religion. Merejkowski portrays Leonardo as a man of many facets, some of which may be grouped as pagan, some of which are Christian. As a result, Leonardo was filled with conflict and doubts. Striving for the unattainable, he almost never completes a work. Always dissatisfied with what he has done, the artist suffers a characteristically modern "anxiety."
