It combines an extensive body of literature about the Treatise with original research to offer a unique perspective on:• Its origins, and history of how it survived the dispersal of manuscripts;• Its contents, their significance and how Leonardo developed his Renaissance Theory of Art;• The development of both the abridged and complete printed editions;• How the printed editions have influenced treatises and art history throughout Europe, the Eastern Mediterranean, and America from the Seventeenth to the Twentieth Centuries.
