Abstract

Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519) is widely regarded as one of the most brilliant minds of Western civilization. An Italian polymath of the High Renaissance, he was active as a painter, draughtsman, engineer, scientist, theorist, sculptor, and architect. By combining extraordinary artistic mastery with observational and scientific studies that were highly unconventional for his time, Leonardo produced numerous masterpieces that continue to endure, including the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.
