EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artwork by the legendary Leonardo da Vinci, titled "Project for a building with a stairway for the servants and a stairway for the lord of the castle". The drawing originates from Codex B (2173), c. 68v, which is housed in the prestigious Institut de France. Leonardo's genius shines through as he meticulously illustrates his vision for an architectural masterpiece. Created during the High Renaissance period, this piece reflects both Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles that dominated Europe during the first and second millennium A. D. The photograph was taken in 2001, capturing every intricate detail of Leonardo's plan project. Dating back to approximately 1470-1519, this artwork offers us a glimpse into the mind of one of history's greatest polymaths. In this particular drawing, Leonardo focuses on stairs as essential building elements within his grand design. He skillfully incorporates decorative elements while also considering practicality and functionality. Two separate stairways are depicted: one designated for servants and another reserved exclusively for the lord of the castle – an intriguing insight into social hierarchies prevalent during that era. As we explore this image further, we witness how Leonardo effortlessly combines different architectural sections to create harmony within his composition. His mastery over perspective and proportion is evident throughout. Leonardo da Vinci remains an eternal symbol of artistic brilliance and intellectual curiosity. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only his extraordinary talent but also provides valuable insights into European architecture during significant historical periods such as High Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles.
