EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in history as Leonardo da Vinci, one of the greatest minds of all time, takes his last breath in the arms of Francois I. The engraving, created by an unknown artist in the 19th century, depicts this solemn scene that unfolded at Clos Luce in 1519. Leonardo da Vinci's genius and artistic prowess are well-known, but this image reveals a vulnerable side to him. As he succumbs to mortality, we witness his frailty and humanity. His face is marked with wisdom and weariness, while Francois I cradles him tenderly, offering solace during his final moments. The composition exudes a sense of deep connection between these two historical figures. It symbolizes not only the passing of an extraordinary talent but also the passing on of knowledge from one generation to another. In their embrace lies a profound appreciation for artistry and intellect. Giancarlo Costa's masterful capture brings this significant event back to life through intricate details and delicate lines. This engraving serves as a testament to Leonardo da Vinci's enduring legacy and immortalizes the bond shared between two remarkable individuals who shaped history. Displayed within private collections today, this artwork continues to inspire awe and contemplation about mortality, creativity, and human connections that transcend time itself.
