{"product_id":"the-romance-of-leonardo-da-vinci-2","title":"The romance of Leonardo da Vinci,","description":"How Leonardo da Vinci become a creative genius? How did he live, love, suffer? With a care for detail \u0026amp; an inspiration worthy of the greatest, the author invites us to enter the intimacy of a man for whom talent, perceived as a godsend, is a true vocation that he takes on with all his soul, refusing the eases of money \u0026amp; of vanities. The genius artist turns himself into a bridge between us \u0026amp; the Creator. In this large \u0026amp; deep novelistic evocation, the Renaissance appears like the quintessence of all periods, the abstract of all passions \u0026amp; the endless mirror of humankind's universe. Freud admired this work, where he discovered the famous Da Vinci’s child memory–-a vulture coming down to his cradl-–that inspired him one of his essays. Prodigiously lively portrait of the great artist, The Romance of Leonardo da Vinci is also a key element of the Russian literature of the 20st century. Dmitry Sergeyevich Merezhkovsky was one of the most read \u0026amp; respected authors of his time. Figurehead of the Russian symbolism, sensible to the fight between Christianity \u0026amp; paganism, he became famous after his trilogy Christ \u0026amp; Antichrist was published. His legacy is a rich work that one keeps discovering without tiring.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0007DVL44\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.B0007DVL44.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Dmitry Sergeyevich Merezhkovsky|Herbert Trench\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Mass market paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is a well used but readable copy.
