the romance of leonardo da vinci
Dmitry Merezhkovsky, a famous Russian author, poet, critic, translator, historian and philosopher, draws a vivid picture of the Renaissance with its contradictions between the severe monastic middle Ages and a new humanistic ideology, which was created by the great artists and luminaries of the time. Describing the epoch, the book presents Leonardo Da Vinchi as the central theme. The author introduces him as one of those artists, who lived in a state of split, conflict and doubt. Merezhkovsky brings readers to the thought that ancient gods return to our life with the rebirth of antique art.
