A scholarly reappraisal of Luinis appropriation of Da Vincis motifs and compositions
This volume examines a selection of paintings from the 1520s by Italian Renaissance painter Bernardino Luini (c. 1480/851532) that were highly influenced by Leonardo da Vinci (14521519), endeavoring to reconceive Luinis much-criticized lack of originality vis-à-vis the older master.
Luinis critics, the book argues, fail to consider the function of his paintings as devotional images for the general public. Not only did Luini simplify and clarify da Vincis motifsrendering them accessible to uneducated viewersbut he also helped set a new standard for the depiction of sacred subjects, drawing inspiration from other artists such as Andrea Solario.
While little is known about the publics perception of religious art during this period, the compositions of Luinis paintings provide cluesas detectable in the way he foregrounds figures and frames their interactions with one another and the beholder.
