Summary | "El tratado de la pintura" by Leonardo da Vinci and Leon Battista Alberti is a seminal work on the art of painting written in the late 15th to early 16th century. This publication serves as a comprehensive guide for aspiring artists, detailing both theoretical principles and practical techniques essential to mastering the craft of painting. The book emphasizes the importance of observing nature, understanding anatomy, and employing perspective to achieve realism in art. At the start of this notable treatise, the translator introduces the work's purpose, noting the distinction between mere practice and the pursuit of profound knowledge in the arts. He encourages young painters to begin their education in perspective, followed by drawing from the real world and studying works of established masters. This opening also stresses the necessity of diligence over speed in learning, laying out a foundation for the artistic development that is further explored in the following sections of the treatise. The translator acknowledges da Vinci's complex writing style, hinting at the challenges of interpreting his thoughts, while expressing the hope that this translation will make the valuable insights of da Vinci and Alberti more accessible to future generations of painters.
