Printing Details
First edition, second printing. Hardback in dustwrapper. 27 × 30.5cm. Unpaginated (128 pages).
Signed and dedicated by Ralph Steadman to the half title page, "For Mrs Le May—thank you for all you have done for Sadie from Ralph and Anna Steadman 19 July '84", and the inscription ends with a little face doodle. Sadie is Ralph Steadman's youngest daughter.
In his distinct, ingenious and anarchic style, Steadman presents key events from the life of Leonardo: among them the painting of the Last Supper, the Mona Lisa and his experiments with flight. The result is a work of sustained brilliance and a triumph of imagination. Illustrated throughout in colour.
Condition
The book is in good plus condition with a little fading to the boards' edges, and slight wrinkle to the pages at the top edge. The dustwrapper has comprehensive edgewear with small tears, knocks and bumps.
