The Concise Mastery

The basic elements of this story are repeated in the lives of all of the great Masters in history: a youthful passion or predilection, a chance encounter that allows them to discover how to apply it, an apprenticeship in which they come alive with energy and focus. Suddenly, his passion for collecting found its perfect outlet. What this also revealed was the incredible patience of Leonardo, who must have felt a great deal of love for such detailed work. And then young Johann fell in love, and any remnant of self-control was finally gone.
