An innovative look at the creation of Leonardo’s The Virgin of the Rocks

This concise but innovative book, published to accompany an immersive digital exhibition at the National Gallery, London, focuses on a single Leonardo painting, and one of the artist’s most celebrated: The Virgin of the Rocks. The quarter-century process of its creation is described, while a technical study shows how the latest scanning technology has been used by the National Gallery to explore beneath the surface of the picture, resulting in new insights into Leonardo’s approach, optical theories, and painting technique. Illustrated with details of the painting, technical images, drawings, and comparative works, this volume combines the expertise of curators, conservators, and scientists in order to introduce readers to a fresh perspective on one of history’s most extraordinary minds.

这本简洁而创新的书是伴随着英国国家美术馆的一场沉浸式数字展览一起出版的，该展览聚焦于达芬奇Z著名的画作之一——《岩间圣母》（The Virgin of the Rocks）。

书中描述了这幅画耗时约四分之一个世纪的创作历程，同时一项技术性的研究显示了国家美术馆是如何使用最新的扫描技术来探索这幅画表面之下的秘密的，从而引出了对达芬奇的方法、光学理论以及绘画技术的新见解。

本书配图包括了丰富的画作细节，技术图像，图纸以及比较性作品，书中结合了策展人、保护人员和科学家的专业知识，以便将历史上最非凡的思想之一的新鲜视角介绍给读者。
