Leonardo's Nephew: Essays On Art And Artists by James Fenton

Fifteen delightful pieces on art and art history for the intelligent general reader rather than the specialist. The range is enormously from a piece that argues that the Egyptian funerary portraits weren't death pictures at all, to a biographical essay on Leonardo's talented nephew who died tragically young, to a considered view of art. And four major pieces on Seurat, Degas and Picasso. Fully illustrated, this is marvellous reading for all those who love painting and sculpture.
