Public Note:

This new edition of Zöllner's earlier published studies on Leonardo's work contains a new preface. The 2015 edition was issued in a smaller format than the 2007 publication (see entry in this database).

NB: The catalogue raisonné also was reissued in 2018, with a new chapter on Leonardo's manuscripts.

The introductory essays cover Leonardo's life and career. The texts are followed by the catalogue raisonné of the paintings, with a separate section on the graphic works. There are also appendices and a concordance (Popham, Keele Predetti, etc.), as well as a bibliography and listing of secondary literature.
