What reading level is Leonardo Da Vinci book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" It was about 1482, the probable date of Leonardo's migration fromFlorence to Milan, that he painted the "Vierge aux Rochers, " now inthe Louvre (No. 1599). It is an essentially Florentine picture, andalthough it has no pedigree earlier than 1625, when it was in theRoyal Collection at Fontainebleau, it is undoubtedly much earlier andconsiderably more authentic than the "Virgin of the Rocks, " now in theNational Gallery (Plate III. ).
He certainly set to work about this time on the projected st...atue ofFrancesco Sforza, but probably then made very little progress with it. He may also in that year or the next have painted the lost portrait ofCecilia Gallerani, one of the mistresses of Ludovico Sforza. It has, however, been surmised that that lady's features are preserved to usin the "Lady with a Weasel, " by Leonardo's pupil Boltraffio, which isnow in the Czartoryski Collection at Cracow.
IN THE EAST The absence of any record of Leonardo in Milan, or elsewhere in Italy, between 1483 and 1487 has led critics to the conclusion, based ondocumentary evidence of a somewhat complicated nature, that he spentthose years in the service of the Sultan of Egypt, travelling inArmenia and the East as his engineer.
