- Experience the excitement of what was dubbed 'one of the exhibitions of the century' in this brand new retrospective of the 2011 show 'Leonardo da Vinci: Painter at the Court of Milan'.
Take a look back at this unprecedented exhibition -- the first of its kind anywhere in the world -- which brought together sensational international loans never before seen in the UK.
Hear exhibition curator Luke Syson reflecting on the significance of the historical show, as Larry Keith, Head of Conservation, Ashok Roy, Director of Science, and Nicholas Penny, Director of the National Gallery describe what they learnt from this once-in-a-lifetime exhibition.
'Looking Back on Leonardo' was made by Oxford Film and Television and directed by Peter Sweasey.

My daughter bought me two tickets for this exhibition for my 60th birthday. I was speechles as we followed the queues around & we couldn't loiter we had to keep moving but it was absolutely spellbinding. Experience of a lifetime indeed!
Love the national gallery
One of my all time heroes
Leonardo Da Vinci was a very skilled & highly intelligent master of the art world. He was right at the top of best artist/painter of all time. He was way ahead of his time. Leonardo was a prodigy & he was a perfectionist.
Happy that I booked early and was able to attend this exhibition
Beautiful
Gracias por compartirlo.
Have ten years gone since this exhibition at the National Gallery? I made the trip from Malta to experience this once in a lifetime event. It’s indelibly recorded in my memory.
thanks for sharing this, I would like to ask if "Leonardo Live" will be available on bluray anytime soon ?
Many thanks to all who put this exhibition together in London, I thought I would never see the Cecilia Gallerani (Lady with Ermine) portrait for real (no disrespect to Poland, but its never been on my places to do list). Extraordinary!.
Thank you for your question da7inci - unfortunately 'Leonardo Live' is not available on DVD or Blu-ray

Hi, does anyone know why the National Gallery sold the painting of the 'Salvator Mundi' ? Why not keep it in the museum for everyone to enjoy? Thanks
Hi Lucas, the Gallery didn't own Leonardo's 'Salvator Mundi' painting. This work was on loan to us from a private collection as part of our 'Leonardo' exhibition in 2011. Thanks

Did Leonardo not pass his knowledge on to anyone else then?
Spike, you wrote this question 2 years ago, but no-one from the Gallery, or with the information has answered, so I am doing now, in case you are still wanting an answer.
Did Leonardo pass the knowledge on?
Yes, he was a very generous teacher.
From the time he went to Milan to work for the Duke Ludovico Sforza, he worked with assistants and pupils.
We can name a whole string of artists who he influenced in this direct way- Ambrogio de Predis, Boltraffio, Marco d'Oggiono, Bernardo Luini, Count Francesco Melzi, and a very difficult boy who he treated as a son and who was known as Salaino, the little Devil. .
There are a number of paintings in existence where Leonardo got students to work on the same design, simultaneously, and then directed or assisted them. Two well-known ones ate the two versions of the Madonna with a Yarn Winder.
There are other painters who did not belong to his workshop, but who learnt from his paintings. The most famous are Raphael and Andrea del Sarto.
Leonardo, as well as teaching by direct instruction and demonstration, wrote lots of notes for students about figute composition, and lighting.
He set about preparing a comprehensive guide to Human Anatomy, and left it with Francesco Melzi to be published. Unfortunately, this did not take place, and the precious drawings did not became available until the 20th century.
Of Leonardo's works, three were more influential than others.
1. The National Gallery's painting of the Virgin of the Rocks demonstrated more than any other painting of its time,
a) the dramatic use of natural light
b) the use of the natural environment as a setting for dramatic action
c) the use of the trapezoid shape as a compositional device rather than a simply triangle.
(I must state here that the National Gallery and others believe that the similar painting in the Louvre is earlier and therefore more important)
2. The Last Supper. Despite the fact that this was painting was a technical disaster, Leonardo set a new standard of story-telling in this picture. He did this by NOT painting the moment of the Story that he was commissioned to paint, the moment when Jesus has broken some bread, and takes up the chalice of wine and says, "This is my body which will be broken for you! This is my blood which will be shed for you! Remember Me in the breaking of bread, and drinking of wine."
Instead, Leonardo painted the moment just after Jesus has said, "One of you people sitting at the table tonight will betray me and turn me over to my enemies!"
THAT has caused great consternation all around the table.
3. The third painting of huge influence is ..... Tarantara! ...... the Mona Lisa.
At a date when MOST portraits were profile, with a crisp outline against a blue sky, and very little shading, portrait painting was gradually developing into 3/4 face pictures, brightly lit, and perhaps set in a room or window frame.
The Mona Lisa was RADICAL!
But because it has been seen and reproduced and imitated and loved for 500, it now just looks like a very familiar picture that everyone in the world recognises .....
You do not look at it and think.... WOW! Raphael, del Sarto, Caravaggio, Velazquez, Rembrandt, Rubens, Ingres, Reynolds, Gainsborough, Manet, van Gogh, Whistler, Sargeant, Picasso, Dali, Dobell, Lucien Freud and Francis Bacon were all influenced by this painting.
Not to mention the entire Black and White Film industry, and thousands upon thousands of photographers.

this concept is totally wrong and incorrect and so can other viewers and artists! Namely the fact that in the great museums and exhibitions, in these unique events, the vast majority of the exhibitions, but also in smaller events, are called these curators and presenters, people who do not know what they are talking about and offer us all their analysis and their opinion. about a certain work. When in fact very few people on the globe can really talk about the respective works and in no case should a presenter, speaker, historian or chemist wrongly influence such a large number of people. Because of the modernization of universities and the Internet today and the so-called wave of modernists are indoctrinated many students and later teachers and again students and we are taught to see the wrong art and to see it increasingly empty and composed of plastic! Let the masterpieces speak for themselves!
Unspeakably banal, fatuous vacuous comments in K Clarks haut en bas style with none of his intelligence or warmth, O what a falling off was there hyperion to a satyr,No one says anything significant about the paintings,Art simply as cultural commodity the utter debasement of human life, The horror vthe horror,
