Da Vinci’s Milan Masterworks Thrill in London Exhibit: Review

“Leonardo da Vinci: Painter at the Court of Milan,” the new exhibition at the National Gallery in London, is just as good as it promised to be.

The basic concept is extraordinary: gathering more paintings by one of the greatest artists than have ever been seen together. The experience is thrilling. What’s more, it’s likely to change the minds of experts on Leonardo (1452-1519). This is a triumph for the museum, and the curator, Luke Syson.
