Leonardo At Play
The masque carried Leonardo da Vinci to prominence in the court of Ludovicio Sforza in Milan. Leonardo produced extravagant pageants to celebrate the Duke's weddings, coronations, and whims. Public splendor is a compelling mask for power.
Leonardo's sketchbooks gathered faces: sometimes in fanciful distortion, sometimes in unadorned clarity, sometimes wrapped in armor, sometimes peeled to subcutaneous anatomy. In all these levels, Leonardo sought something modern – identity. Our word person derives from persona, the Latin word for mask.
