Mona Lisa: Inside the Painting

By

Detailed in this magnificent, oversized volume is an in-depth study — conducted from October 2004 to April 2005 — of Leonardo Da Vinci's masterpiece Mona Lisa. Using modern techniques, the authors sought to gain insight into the heart of Mona Lisa by examining Da Vinci's technique and use of materials. Their stated purpose is "to lift part of the veil of mystery that covers this work ... Through the rediscovery of Leonardo's delicate, scholarly technique, the work loses none of its capacity to convey emotion ..." Art and science unite harmoniously. Readers will be captivated and find themselves drawn into the study of this most famous portrait. Authors — Jean-Pierre Mohen, Michel Menu, and Bruno Mottin. Hardcover. 128 pages. 330 illustrations. 11¾" × 17¾" (30 cm × 45 cm).
