Overview

Several poor attempts have been made to understand details in Leonardo's paintings. All have failed miserably, not only to see the humor and ridicule in them, but more importantly they have failed to bring to light the secret knowledge in them. Now, at last all is about to be revealed in this extraordinary book that will remove the cataracts that have been placed over our eyes by centuries of indoctrination, and reveal a new and brilliant, history of the world. Written in 1978. 'One may only speculate where Leonardo obtained his knowledge of this heretical tradition, which we nowadays relate to 'esoteric Christianity', but which even in the sixteenth century would have been quite heretical. Perhaps Leonardo da Vinci was himself an initiate, a secret adept, and had the knowledge and had the insights from his own personal insights.' (F. Gettings- Hidden Art) Art Historian, F. Gettings wrote this in 1978 and nobody has, as yet, managed to solve this puzzle despite several best-selling books... TILL NOW! Read less

Author Information

JULIAN DOYLE is one of the world's most versatile film-makers. He has written and directed his own films, and edited, photographed and created Fx on others. He is most famous for editing the Monty Python Films and shooting the Fxs for the Terry Gilliam films 'TimeBandits and 'Brazil', which he also edited. He has written and directed three feature films. 'Love Potion' about a drug rehabilitation center, described as Hitchcockian. 'Chemical Wedding' featuring Simon Callow about the outrageous British occultist, Aleister Crowley and described by one American reviewer as 'Thoroughly entertaining although at times you wonder if the film makers have not lost all there senses'. He has also directed award winning pop videos such as Kate Bush's 'Cloudbusting' featuring Donald Sutherland and Iron Maiden's 'Play with Madness'. He recently wrote and directed the play 'Twilight of the Gods' investigating the tumultuous relationship between Richard Wagner and Friedrich Nietzsche and described by 'Philosophy Today' as 'Masterful!' Python's, Terry Jones has described him as an original Polymath. Julian was born in London and started life in the slums of Paddington. His Irish father, Bob, was one of the youngest members of the International Brigade that went to fight against Franco's invasion of democratic Spain. His mother, Lola, was born in Spain of an Asturian miner who died early of silicosis. She was thereafter brought up in a Catholic orphanage in Oviedo. Julian started his education at St. Saviors, a church primary school. He went on to Haverstock secondary school, one of the first comprehensive schools in England. His first job was as a junior technician to Professor Peter Medawar's team, which won the Nobel Prize soon after Julian's arrival. Not that he claims any credit for that. At night school he passed his 'A' level exams and took a Zoology degree at London University. After a year at the Institute of Education, he taught biology before going to the London Film School. On leaving he started a film company with other students. Besides film making, Julian is well known for his Master-classes in Film Directing. While still at school, Julian had a daughter, Margarita who was brought up in the family. He then had two further children, Jud and Jessie. Clearly, Julian Doyle is a very naughty boy!
