Bol

An account of the life of Leonardo da Vinci, from his birth to his apprenticeship in Florence and work in Milan, Rome and Amboise. A self taught intellectual, he was endlessly curious about the physical world and his notebooks reveal a breadth of research, and anticipation of modern technology. Leonardo da Vinci may be best known to us as the artist in such masterpieces as the Mona Lisa and The Virgin on the Rocks. However, Leonardo was also endlessly curious about the physical world. His amazing notebooks reveal the breadth of his research into areas as diverse as anatomy, architecture, botany, geometry, mathematics, physics and engineering, including many anticipations of modern technology. As with all the titles in this amazing pocket-sized series, hundreds of illustrations of paintings, sketches and designs are closely integrated with detailed, fascinating texts and contemporary documents.
