Leonardo y la Arquitectura
Jean Variosume
Synopsis "Leonardo y la Arquitectura"
Dispersos en sus numerosos manuscritos, los estudios de Leonardo sobre arquitectura fueron concebidos durante un itinerario artistico de casi cincuenta años, al servicio de los mas prestigiosos comitentes. Referidos a iglesias, monumentos funerarios, reestructuraciones urbanas, fortificaciones, palacios y villas, arquitectura efimera y pintada, en su mayoria de caracter ideal, se integran en la evolucion arquitectonica de finales del Quattrocento y principios del Cinquecento. Sus dibujos asimilan las ideas de los pioneros de la arquitectura del Renacimiento y se centran en aspectos particulares como las intervenciones en estructuras existentes, los ordenes clasicos, las escaleras y la decoracion. Su analisis arroja luz sobre el dialogo con Bramante, Francesco di Giorgio, Giuliano da Sangallo, Miguel Angel, Baldassarre Peruzzi y Antonio da Sangallo el Joven y permite comprender si Leonardo fue un innovador o un singular interprete de los logros de su epoca. Scattered in his numerous manuscripts, Leonardo's studies on architecture were conceived during an artistic itinerary of almost fifty years, in the service of the most prestigious patrons. Concerning churches, funerary monuments, urban restructuring, fortifications, palaces and villas, ephemeral and painted architecture, mostly of an ideal nature, they are part of the architectural evolution of the late Quartrocento and early Cinquecento. His drawings assimilate the ideas of the pioneers of Renaissance architecture and focus on particular aspects such as interventions on existing structures, classical orders, staircases and decoration. Their analysis sheds light on the dialogue with Bramante, Francesco di Giorgio, Giuliano da Sangallo, Michelangelo, Baldassarre Peruzzi and Antonio da Sangallo the Younger and allows us to understand whether Leonardo was an innovator or a singular interpreter of the achievements of his time.
