Leonardo da Vinci's Greatest Hits is a painting created by American artist Jean-Michel Basquiat in 1982.

Analysis

Jean-Michel Basquiat primarily used texts as reference sources for his artwork.[1] He drew inspiration from the medical book Gray's Anatomy, which had been given to him by his mother as a child while he recovered from a car accident in the hospital.[2] Leonardo da Vinci's Greatest Hits references Renaissance man Leonardo da Vinci's anatomical drawings of body parts and graphic notations. Basquiat brought symbolism into this work with a depiction of African American folk hero John Henry on the lower left.[3] Among the scattering of words written across a white collage, Basquiat's signature three crown motif appears three times. This painting "is almost a summary or encyclopedia of his work," said curator Kelly Baum.[4]

Exhibitions

Leonardo da Vinci's Greatest Hits was exhibited at the Fun Gallery in the East Village of Manhattan in 1982.[1] The painting is owned by Herb and Lenore Schorr. In 2015, it was loaned to the Princeton University Art Museum in Princeton, New Jersey for the exhibition Collecting Contemporary, 1960–2015: Selections from the Schorr Collection.[3]
