Book excerpt: Leonardo's anatomical studies actually set themselves as an ideal meeting point between artistic and scientific interests because the study of the functioning of the body was essential for artistic practice in order to achieve the correct representation of the human figure. For Leonardo, the artistic practice was determined by an inexhaustible desire for knowledge that led him to study the human body through the Vitruvian proportions and through dissection, carried out by the artist with special care over the middle years of the first decade of the sixteenth century. Drawing becomes essential to understand and reproduce the structure of the male and female body, a "wonderful machine" perfectly thought out. The organs are devices and the body is a machine: Man then becomes a further testing ground for mechanical science.

Download or read book Leonardo Da Vinci written by Martin Clayton and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2010 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leonardo da Vinci was not only one of the leading artists of the Renaissance, he was also one of the greatest anatomists ever to have lived. He combined, to a unique degree, manual skill in dissection, analytical skill in understanding the structures he uncovered, and artistic skill in recording his results. His extraordinary campaign of dissection, conducted during the winter of 1510-11 and concentrating on the muscles and bones of the human skeleton, was recorded on the pages of a manuscript now in the Print Room of the Royal Library at Windsor Castle. These are arguably the finest anatomical drawings ever made and are extensively annotated in Leonardo's distinctive "mirror-writing", with explanations of the drawings, notes on related anatomical matters, memoranda and so on. This publication reproduces the entire manuscript, and for the first time translates all of Leonardo's copious notes on the page so that the unfolding of his thoughts may readily be followed.
Download or read book Leonardo s Anatomy written by Paola Salvi and published by CB Edizioni. This book was released on 2014-12-31 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The anatomical drawings of Leonardo da Vinci are generally admired for their analytical character and graphical precision, or are studied from the perspective of the scientific discoveries which the artist made in a strictly anatomical context, or in those of pathological investigation. They may also be viewed in the light of contemporary knowledge and ideas without considering the full value and the novelty of their intended visualization. In this volume, centred on the contexts and methods of visualization, Paola Salvi looks at the theory and practice of the visual arts as the foundation of Leonardo's anatomical drawings. which become a scientific contribution since their intention was to make visible the human body in all its parts, by means of the selection and 'reconstructive' imagery of the drawings. Direct observation and the communicative value of visual language replace the tedious and scarcely useful verbal descriptions of anatomical texts of the time, leading the artist to the programmatic synthesis expressed around 1510: "Therefore it is necessary to make a drawing of it as well as to describe it". This volume therefore becomes not only a reinterpretation and a more conscious placement of the anatomical work of Leonardo in the context of the knowledge of the time, but is also the basis of a new historical framework for artistic anatomy and, above all, for the anatomical iconography which finds models of reconstruction which have come into their own right, in the works of Leonardo. Carlo Pedretti, who writes the foreword, defines the book as, "an enterprise that requires courage and the ability to conduct a rigourous interpretive synthesis, qualities that once again I can not help but recognise in Paola Salvi". This is the English language edition.

Book excerpt: The choice of the sheets of Windsor, with the addition of five sheets from other collections, is motivated by a chronological outline that offers a synthetic summary of the results achieved by Leonardo in almost thirty years of assiduous researches in the fields of anatomy and physiology. The selection emphasizes how these researches can be ascribed to the influence of anatomy teaching from the Middle Ages up to the time of Leonardo, particularly in Bologna and with protagonists that range from Mondinus to Zerbi and from Achillini to Berengarius. It is the first time that these scientific studies are considered, compiling a catalogue, with particular attention to the relationship that they have with the artistic theories of Leonardo.

This book was released on 2018-10-12 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Leonardo Da Vinci, the Anatomist (1452-1519) And yet such is the strength and pervasiveness of tradition that in spite of his prophylactic ignorance and aloofness, Leonardo could not entirely escape its prejudices. The barrier was not insuperable after all. There is nothing to prove that he had read Galen. Of course he knew Galen and spoke of him even as most of our contemporaries speak of Einstein or Freud without ever having read them. The physio logical knowledge which had been transmitted to him by Mondino, Chauliac, or Benedetti, or better still by the intermediary of his conversations with surgeons or brother craftsmen, that knowledge was purely Galenic. Galenic prejudices were part of the very atmosphere which he was breathing; they were beyond the need of scrutiny or dispute. And so it was that this keen observer saw things not always with his own eyes, but sometimes with those of Galen! The best example of this aberration is Leonardo's reference to the heart's septum as sievelike. Not only does it occur repeatedly in his notes, but he even drew a portion of the septum showing pores which do not exist. Galen's triumphant dogmatism made even a Leonardo see the inexistent. But for this illusion which sidetracked him hopelessly, Leonardo might conceivably have discovered the circulation of the blood before Harvey, for he had as much anatomical and mechanical knowledge as was needed. He had all that was necessary to see the truth, except that in this particular case he was blinded by an over powering prejudice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leonardo Da Vinci’s Elements of the Science of Man describes how Da Vinci integrates his mechanical observations and experiments in mechanics into underlying principles. This book is composed of 17 chapters that highlight the principles underlying Da Vinci’s research in anatomical studies. Considerable chapters deal with Leonardo’s scientific methods and the mathematics of his pyramidal law, as well as his observations on the human and animal movements. Other chapters describe the artist’s anatomical approach to the mechanism of the human body, specifically the physiology of vision, voice, music, senses, soul, and the nervous system. The remaining chapters examine the mechanism of the bones, joints, respiration, heart, digestion, and urinary and reproductive systems.
