Biographie

Leonardo da Vinci was the archetype of the Renaissance mind — painter, engineer, anatomist, and inventor in one lifetime. He filled notebooks with observations of nature, machines, and the human form, believing art and science are two expressions of the same curiosity. His work teaches us to see deeply, sketch freely, and connect disciplines others keep separate.
