Hardback. Zustand: Good. How an oddly attributed $19,000 picture proved to be a $100 million work by Leonardo da Vinci--a true art-world detective storyIn late 2010, art collector Peter Silverman revealed that a German, early 19th century portrait he had bought for $19,000 was, in fact, a previously unknown drawing by Leonardo da Vinci--an exquisite depiction of Bianca Sforza, rendered 500 years ago. In Leonardo's Lost Princess, Silverman gives a riveting first-person account of how his initial suspicions of the portrait's provenance were confirmed repeatedly by scientists and art experts. He describes the path to authentication, fraught with opposition and controversy. The twists and turns of this fascinating, decade-long quest lead from art history to cutting-edge science, and from a New York art gallery to Paris, Milan, Zurich, and ultimately a Warsaw library where the final, convincing evidence that the portrait was indeed by da Vinci was found.Takes an up-close look at the workings of the art world and at figures ranging from dealers and connoisseurs to a suspected forger Discusses current scientific techniques used to investigate and authenticate works of art, such as carbon dating and cutting-edge photography Uses Silverman's drawing as an entree into Leonardo da Vinci's world: his studio, his style, and his methods Explores the intersection of art and science in the authentication process, involving the work of a man who embodied that intersection Unearthing the secrets almost lost to history, the book is ideal reading for art lovers and anyone interested in an astounding case of whodunit.…

"Disney - PIXAR collection , 2002. 1 volume format DVD très bon Voilà un film hilarant qui aura en outre le mérite de rassurer les plus jeunes. En effet, les "terrifiantes" créatures de Monstres et Cie, qui tirent leur énergie des hurlements d'effroi des bambins, ont un léger défaut dans la cuirasse : ils ont peur des enfants. Une peur panique, qui prend une tournure dramatiquement drôle lorsqu'une (toute) petite fille parvient à se faufiler dans leur monde. Après une paire de Toy Story et l'excellent 1001 pattes, les équipes de Pixar réalisent encore une fois un coup gagnant avec cette histoire de monstres parfaitement réussie. Animation parfaite, personnages attachants ? au premier rang desquels une adorable boule de poils bleus ?, scénario prenant et surtout humour omniprésent, tout concourt à faire de ces 90 minutes un pur moment de bonheur. Sans doute destiné à un public plus jeune que ces prédécesseurs, Monstres et Cie séduira néanmoins également les adultes, notamment grâce à ce DVD en tout point parfait et qui permet en outre de profiter du film dans une version originale au casting ahurissant (John Goodman, Billy Crystal, James Coburn [!], Steve Buscemi). --Edmond Corgé.…
