Immerse yourself in the world of art with 'Treatise on Painting', an essential work by Leonardo da Vinci. This book gathers the notes, ideas, and knowledge that the Renaissance genius accumulated throughout his life, offering a unique vision on the pictorial exercise and the observation of nature. This edition, the first in Spanish directly from the original manuscripts, is an invaluable source for the study of Leonardo and his artistic legacy.

Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci was an Italian polymath of the High Renaissance who was active as a painter, draughtsman, engineer, scientist, theorist, sculptor, and architect. While his fame initially rested on his achievements as a painter, he has also become known for his notebooks, in which he made drawings and notes on a variety of subjects, including anatomy, astronomy, botany, cartography, painting, and palaeontology. Leonardo is widely regarded as a genius who epitomised the Renaissance humanist ideal, and his collective works contributed to the development of European art to an extent rivalled only by that of his younger contemporary Michelangelo.
