Mr. Kemp explains enormous absurdities with a lot of class and persuasion. And to think that he is considered one of the greatest specialists of Leonardo da Vinci
“Leonardo by Leonardo” by Martin Kemp has the highest quality photos I’ve come across in a book featuring da Vinci’s paintings. Combined with Kemp’s outstanding knowledge of the Renaissance man extraordinaire, this handsome volume is a must-have for Leonardo aficionados.
Does it contain a photo of the "Salvator Mundi" painting ?
The 2011 National Gallery catalog does show the "Salvator Mundi" ...
@@phmwu7368 Yes, it does.
This really makes me want to re-do my life and choose to do History of Art under Martin Kemp at Oxford...
Do a VR tour of Leonardo DaVinci's Paintings with his book being read. People that will never get to go there would love it.
Martin Kemp is 80 years old; why he thinks dying his hair so dark makes him look younger is beyond me. It just makes him look creepy.
This most excellent scholar brings Leonardo's Art more to our minds now that can get it: ie in identifying the Fibonacci sequence in nature and how mystically/scientifically that forms (Plato) are illusory (Buddhism; Quantum Physics.) My English AH teacher back in the 70's always pressed us to actively look, be engaged and alert when in front of a work of art. In Leonardo all things of mind and being come together. And he knew that 500 years ago. I say the same for 'Shakespeare' who i hold to be Sir Francis Bacon.
mr kemp is wonderful.....
I’ve seen Leonardo…how many can say that? 😏
this particular painting has been floating around for many years. I believe it was made by Bernardino Luini. he was a student of leonardo and never used halos to distinguish between saint and sinner.
Leonardo was an art instructor. there was no paper but lamb skin, which is difficult to draw on so they used a slab of poplar wood. maybe a foot in diameter. give or take an inch. if you look at the salvator mundi(latin for the christ one) you first notice the person is wearing a dress?! in those days women wore hoods, long sleeve, dress that draged on floor and a straight collar so as not to show clevage. long hair dainty hands. no beard. the painting on wood is student size. when the student mastered painting they would go on to paint on large canvas, frescos.murals. etc.If this painting was made by leonardo it would have also had a Halo. christies and sotherbys are crooks.they brought this painting for 1,000 and paid off all fake authenticators. mona lisa was not made by leonardo, its student size!
Just a small point, but Kemp says the cloth merchant's wife is looking at you [ the viewer ] ; for me she is looking to the viewer's right.
Hello...Sir
Can you please let know whether Leonardo Da Vinci used to put signature or not.
It will be very helpful to me. And I have a painting done by him. It's a self portrait. Oil on board. Then I can send the image to you please.
All of Leonardo's paintings are in museums. You do not have one hahaha!!
Yeah that wasn’t really done at the time either. They didn’t really sign their work at that time.
Also the chances of having one of very few paintings done by the maestro are very slim.
I am sure it's real. 😝
Of course: he signed allways "created by Leo " ;-)
Please send
Martin Kemp seems to have been specializing in dubious Leonardo attributions lately: first the supermarket cashier "La Bella Principessa" (name entirely made up by Kemp), which a forger has admitted making, and now the Salvator Mundi, which has been repainted to be an "authentic" Leonardo at last. Kemp looks to be a member in good standing of the often-wrong-never-in-doubt club.
Thank you. He talks about the "composition" of the Salvator Mundi, but there's not much composition involved, is there? Even Leonardo's lesser works are more imaginative--and more complicated, composition-wise--than the Salvator Mundi. St. John the Baptist faces forward, but he's not *just* facing forward.
Shaun Greenhalgh did Bossy Sally from the CoOp in 1978 in his garden shed in Bolton. The Salvator Mundi, which I've seen, is as much a Leonardo as Martin Kemp's hair is naturally black.
leonardo's "Last supper" does not depict 12 apostles. mother mary stands on one side of jesus, and magdalina sitting on the other side of jesus. every one else have beards.
HEY EXPERT WHERE IS THE HALO IN THE SALVATOR(FAKE) MUNDI THAT ALL SAINTS HAVE TO DISTINGUISH FROM COMMONERS?
leonardo da vinci's salvator mundi is conceptual realism painting. it contains the holy bible as the savior of the world..which matches the title of the painting
First. Wonderful!
Look again at this painting. Mary is cradling a (pink) baby. I believe Leonardo was related to Jesus.
Actually there is zero evidence that Leonardo was gay. See Peter Silverman's - "Leonardo's Lost Princess". He was married to science and discovery.
Such a crock of BS!!
Frauds
Hey, that was great research, Mr. Martin Kemp. May I contact you for information about the little Mona Lisa mentioned by Vasari? You can contact me on WhatsApp. Respect, I am Arab.
