Description
Five hundred years after his death, Leonardo da Vinci still feels like a mystery. Becoming Leonardo, Mike Lankford’s 2018 biography subtitled ‘An Exploded View of the Life of Leonardo da Vinci,’ takes him apart — and puts him back together — with fresh eyes.
Lankford approaches Leonardo not as a marble saint but as a working artist: curious, distracted, brilliant, endlessly experimenting. Drawing on the notebooks, the paintings, and the latest scholarship, he reconstructs how the illegitimate son of a Tuscan notary became the defining genius of the Renaissance.
Written with verve and deep affection, this is biography as detective work — and as celebration. Whether you’re meeting Leonardo for the first time or think you know him well, Becoming Leonardo will make you see him anew. A perfect companion to the masterpieces — and to our own age of curiosity. Lankford’s ‘exploded view’ dismantles the myth to reveal the man — restless, searching, gloriously human.
