Note 46 — Chapter III · THE ART OF THINKING

For the Italian reader of Leonardo the fat little volume of Frammenti, edited by Dr. Solmi and published by Barbèra, is a precious and inexhaustible pocket companion. For the English reader Mr. MacCurdy’s larger but much less extensive volume of extracts from the Note-Books, or the still further abridged Thoughts, must suffice. Herbert Horne’s annotated version of Vasari’s Life is excellent for Leonardo’s personality and career.
