"ganzer Kosmos des Renaissancegenies, in opulenter Bebilderung, vorzüglicher Druckqualität und Detailwiedergaben, die das Werk wie unter einem Vergrößerungsglas vor Augen führen ... Herz, was begehrst Du mehr?"
Stuttgarter Zeitung, Stuttgart

"The reader's first impression on opening this lavishly illustrated book is one of sumptuous celebration of the visual aspects of Leonardo's oeuvre."
The Art Newspaper, London
United Kingdom

"Just about the biggest book ever devoted to Leonardo da Vinci, TASCHEN's 700-page study of da Vinci's complete paintings and drawings is less a coffee-table tome than a whole coffee table in itself. With stunning illustrations and expansive text, this is the essential guide to the master."
Gay Times, London

"das spektakulärste Beispiel für den Leonardo-Boom."
Tages-Anzeiger, Zürich

"Sumptuously made and beautifully produced, is the most thorough Leonardo comprehensive survey ever published."
Soloarte, London
United Kingdom

"I know of no better catalogue raisonné of the paintings - scrupulous in every respect, quoting contrary opinions and offering good reason for disagreement with them - the best part of the text, it has no equal currently in print."
Brian Sewell in the Evening Standard, London

"buchstäbliche Verbeugung vor Leonardo da Vinci ... mehr als beeindruckend"
WOM, Ulm
Germany

"Eine der spektakulärsten Kunstbuch-Publikationen ... Details in hervorragender Druckqualität bringen die Gemälde dem Betrachter buchstäblich in ihrer Stofflichkeit als malerisches Ereignis näher ... Ein Monumentalwerk, das ein intimes Leseerlebnis beschert"
Syker Zeitung, Syke
Germany

"TASCHEN always has a dazzling, boundary-pushing book up its sleeve. Leonardo is an opulent beauty, overflowing with vivid reproductions-often bigger than the actual work-of the famous paintings and lesser-known sketchbook pages. ...An amazing portrait of a restless genius, and, at £100, a bargain."
Modern Painters, London
United Kingdom
|
"It is in the graphic section that the book's generous dimensions come into their own. Facsimiles as well as blown-up sections of the wealth of Leonardo's surviving drawings provide an extraordinary direct and intimate view of the artist's hand at work; indeed, a closer view than he would have had himself. ..This is not only the mother of all coffee-table books; it also has the added advantage of being able to serve as a coffee table in its own right."
