300th anniversary of the Spanish National Library. Exhibition: Leonardo’s Images. Madrid Codices at the Spanish National Library
The Spanish National Library (BNE) uses the process of restoration of the manuscripts by Da Vinci as an opportunity to display them to a wider public.
The Spanish National Library conserves two volumes of handwritten manuscripts by Leonardo de Da Vinci, known as the Madrid Codices. They have currently been unbound for restoration, thereby enabling numerous pages to be displayed simultaneously. The exhibition also takes a look at the highly specialised work carried out in the BNE's Restoration Laboratory.
