Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) never signed a painting, and none of his supposed self-portraits can be securely ascribed to his hand. He revealed next to nothing about his life in his extensive writings, yet countless pages have been written about him that assign him an identity: genius, entrepreneur, celebrity artist, outsider. Addressing the ethical stakes involved in studying past lives, Stephen J. Campbell shows how this invented Leonardo has invited speculation from figures ranging from art dealers and curators to scholars, scientists, and biographers.

Tess Chakkalakal gives listeners the first comprehensive biography of Charles W. Chesnutt.

В 1889 году художник, журналист и один из теоретиков символизма Эмиль Бернар написал небольшую заметку, посвященную творчеству Поля Сезанна.
