Where it came from
Published in 1994 as part of the What Makes a... series, this book was a collaborative effort between the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Cherrytree Press. The series was designed to introduce young readers and art enthusiasts to the fundamental stylistic and thematic elements that define the work of master artists, moving beyond simple biography to encourage visual literacy.
Author Richard Mühlberger crafted the text to serve as a guide for identifying the authentic qualities of Leonardo da Vinci’s paintings, sketches, and scientific inquiries. By centering the narrative on the artist's unique techniques and intellectual process, the book helped bridge the gap between academic art history and accessible education, receiving recognition for its clear, pedagogical approach to complex Renaissance masterworks.
