Leonardo da Vinci is often presented as the 'transcendent genius', removed from or ahead of his time. This book, however, attempts to understand him in the context of Renaissance Florence. Larry J. Feinberg explores Leonardo's origins and the beginning of his career as an artist. While celebrating his many artistic achievements, the book illuminates his debt to other artists' works and his struggles to gain and retain patronage, as well as his career and personal difficulties. Feinberg examines the range of Leonardo's interests, including aerodynamics, anatomy, astronomy, botany, geology, hydraulics, optics, and warfare technology, to clarify how the artist's broad intellectual curiosity informed his art. Situating the artist within the political, social, cultural, and artistic context of mid- and late-fifteenth-century Florence, Feinberg shows how this environment influenced Leonardo's artistic output and laid the groundwork for the achievements of his mature works.

Provocative and original, this fresh look at Leonardo da Vinci’s formative years in Florence and Milan provides a radically different scenario of how he created his signature style that would transform Western art forever. The traditional view of Leonardo da Vinci’s career is that he enjoyed a promising start in Florence and then moved to Milan to become the celebrated court artist of Duke Ludovico Sforza. Young Leonardo presents a very different view. It reveals how the young Leonardo struggled against the prevailing style of his master Verrocchio, was stymied in his efforts to produce his first masterpiece in Florence, and left for Milan on little more than a wing and a prayer. Once there, he was long ignored by Duke Ludovico, and enjoyed only tepid Sforza support after his great equestrian project came to nothing. Meanwhile, all the major Sforza commissions went to artists whose names are now forgotten. Isbouts and Brown depict Leonardo’s seminal years in Milan from an entirely new perspective: that of the Sforza court. They show that much of the Sforza patronage was directed on vast projects, such as the Milan Cathedral, favoring a close circle of local artists to which Leonardo never gained entry. As a result, his exceptional talent remained largely unrecognized right up to the Last Supper. The authors also explore a mysterious link between the Last Supper and the fresco of the Crucifixion on the opposite wall, a work that up to now has fully escaped public attention. Finally, they present a sensational theory: that two long-ignored, life-sized copies of the Last Supper, now in Belgium and the U.K., were actually commissioned by the French King Louis XII and painted under Leonardo’s direct supervision. Young Leonardo is a fascinating window into the artist’s mind as he slowly develops the groundbreaking techniques that will produce the High Renaissance and change the course of European art.

The traditional view of Leonardo's early career is that he was recognized as a prodigy in the workshop of Verrocchio, enjoyed a promising start in Florence, and then moved to Milan to become the celebrated court artist of Duke Ludovico Sforza.This provocative book shows that the opposite is true. It reveals how Leonardo struggled against the strong Quattrocento "brand" of Verrocchio's work, was stymied in his efforts to finish his first masterpiece in Florence, and left for Milan on little more than a wing and a prayer. Once there, he was studiously ignored by Duke Ludovico, and only survived on the strength of his association with the de Predis brothers.Authors Isbouts and Brown ("The Mona Lisa Myth," 2013) also show that the first major commission that Leonardo did receive from the Sforza court ended in failure, and that in response, he had to satisfy himself with secondary projects, such as painting the portraits of Sforza's mistresses. Meanwhile, all the big ducal commissions went to Lombard artists that the Duke trusted. This book also argues that it was the prior of the Santa Maria dell Grazie, not the Duke, who chose Leonardo for the Last Supper project, and that only near the end of the Sforza regime, the Duke finally became convinced of Leonardo's exceptional talent. Among many other astonishing revelations, Young Leonardo uncovers the mysterious link between the Last Supper and the fresco of the Crucifixion on the opposite wall, a work that up to now has fully escaped public and scholarly attention. Written in a highly accessible narrative style, Young Leonardo offers a fascinating window on the mind of the young artist as he slowly develops the groundbreaking techniques that will transform the history of Western art.
