     Extractions: The Proportions of the Human Figure You can help to support this site by purchasing any one of these posters. A painter, a sculptor, an architect and an engineer, Leonardo Da Vinci's numerous skills have earned him the title of renaissance master. Da Vinci's fascination with science and his in-depth study of human anatomy aided him in mastering the realist art form. While Leonardo's counterparts were known to create static figures in their works, Leonardo always tried to incorporate movement and expression into his own paintings. All the personages in his works are painted with great accuracy and detail that it is sometimes said that Da Vinci painted from the bones outward. Having lived until the age of 67, Leonardo experienced a very long career that was filled with times during which the painter was celebrated, but at times he was also humiliated and cast away. His life experiences all influenced his works and often, his paintings never left the sketchpad, or were only partially completed, as Leonardo often abandoned his commissions in order to flee from social situations.

     Extractions: The Anatomical Drawings of Leonardo da Vinci by: R. Kevin Alvey Of all the men who contributed to the revival of artistic and intellectual achievement that was to be called the Renaissance, none were more remarkable than Leonardo da Vinci. Recognized now as the "father" of the High Renaissance, he was a master of any discipline in which he practiced. Others may have equaled him as an artist, but nobody else of his time possessed in such a high degree the curiosity about the physical world which is the foundation of modern science, combined with mastery in the arts of painting, drawing, sculpture, and even architecture ( Keele and Blunt, 9 ). While it is the paintings of Leonardo that have brought him fame over the years, the full range of his talent can best be seen in his drawings. His many drawings and notes, at least the ones that have survived, have become the basis for the modern scientific illustration, especially important in the field of anatomy. Leonardo's anatomical studies, while great works of art in themselves, were used not only as tools to aid in his artistic understanding of the human form, but also as a means of scientific exploration of human functions. Leonardo da Vinci was born on April 15, 1452, in the town of Vinci, Italy. He was the illegitimate son of Ser Piero da Vinci, a public notary, and a young peasant girl named Caterina, about whom little is known. From a very early age, Leonardo is said to have shown exceptional ability in geometry, music, and artistic expression (

     Extractions: Main Turning the Pages Features Highlights tour ... Visit us Leonardo da Vinci Notes, with sketches and diagrams, by Leonardo da Vinci Everyone has heard of the Mona Lisa, but less well-known than Leonardo's painting are his notebooks. They show that he was a designer and scientist way beyond his time. He drew his visions of the aeroplane, the helicopter, the parachute, the submarine and the car. It was more than 300 years before many of his ideas were improved upon. The notebooks are where Leonardo recorded his own ideas as well as existing designs and philosophies for reference. They were never intended for publication. After his death in France on 2 May 1519, Francesco Melzi, his pupil, brought many of his manuscripts and drawings back to Italy. Melzi's heirs, who had no idea of the importance of the manuscripts, gradually disposed of them. Despite this, over 5,000 pages still exist in Leonardo's 'mirror writing', from right to left. Over the centuries the sheets have been split up, and few notebooks survive in anything like their original form. Some even remained undiscovered until 1966, when they were found by chance in the archives of the Biblioteca Nacional, Madrid.

     Extractions: April 15, 1452 - May 2, 1519 There is a book by author Dan Brown called The Da Vinci Code in which the bloodline of Jesus is traced. It mentions artist Leonardo Da Vinci as having encoded messages in his art work to prove that bloodline exists. Did Da Vinci encode messages in his work? I bleieve so, but you must study the information and come to your own conclusions. It is all about finding truth. Reality is just metaphoric stories through which the turth about reality is hidden - the mysteries of humanity ecoded in DNA though the alchemy of time and consciousness. Da Vinci was an Italian painter, draftsman, sculptor, architect, and engineer. Da Vinci was a great engineer and inventor who designed buildings, bridges, canals, forts and war machines. He kept huge notebooks sketching his ideas. Among these, he was fascinated by birds and flying and his sketches include such fantastic designs as flying machines. These drawings demonstrate a genius for mechanical invention and insight into scientific inquiry, truly centuries ahead of their time. His greater fame lies in being one of the greatest painters of all times, best known for such paintings as the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper. Personal Life Leonardo was born in Anchiano, near Vinci, Italy. He was an illegitimate child. His father, Ser Piero da Vinci was a young lawyer and his mother, Caterina, was probably a peasant girl. It has also been suggested, albeit on scanty evidence, that she was a Middle Eastern slave owned by Piero. However, the latter theory is unlikely to be true.

     Extractions: Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) was the quintessential renaissance man : artist, mathematician, scientist, and engineer. He was a great lover of geometry, and devoted much time to it starting in his early forties. His most outstanding polyhedral accomplishment is the illustrations for Luca Pacioli 's 1509 book The Divine Proportion . At right is one of the illustrations from that book. The term Ycocedron Abscisus in the title plaque means truncated icosahedron , and the term Vacuus refers to the fact that the faces are hollow. (The drawings are beautifully hand colored like this in the Ambrosiana manuscript, reprinted by Officina Bodoni, 1956, and also by Silvana Editoriale, 1982.) These are the first illustrations of polyhedra ever in the form of "solid edges." The solidity of the edges lets one easily see which edges belong to the front and which to the back, unlike simple line drawings where the front and back surfaces may be visually confused. Yet the hollow faces allow one to see through to the structure of the rear surface. This is a brilliant new form of geometric illustration, one worthy of Leonardo's genius for insightful graphic display of information. However, it is not clear whether Leonardo invented this new form or whether he was simply drawing from "life" a series of wooden models with solid edges which Pacioli designed. If Pacioli designed these models, then he deserves the credit for this new "solid edge" idea, but it is likely that Leonardo designed them.

Often when he was walking past the places where birds were sold, he would pay the price asked, take them from their cages, and let them fly off into the air, giving them back their lost freedom. "[Leonardo] did many architectural drawings both of ground plans and other elevations, and, while still young, he was the first to propose reducing the Arno to a navigable canal between Pisa and Florence."

     http://www.amuseyourself.com/goodreads/leonardodavinci/
     
     Extractions: Leonardo was about 14 when he began his apprenticeship to painter Andrea del Verrocchio in Florence. In 1476, when he was 24 and still under Verrocchio's tutelage, he and three other men were arrested on sodomy charges after being accused, anonymously, of having sex with 17-year-old male art model and prostitute, Jacopo Saltarelli. It is worth noting that making such an charge anonymously was not an uncommon way to retaliate against one's enemies at that time so there may not have been any substance to the charge at all. It is, however, worth wondering who may have had such a grievous vendetta against the young artist. While homosexuality was common throughout the Florence arts community, a formal charge of sodomy was no light matter. The Pope at the time was none other than the thoroughly depraved Sixtus IV (who, just two years later, would bestow his blessing on the Spanish Inquisition); a sodomy conviction could result in a sentence as mild as the humiliation of a public confession, or as serious as imprisonment, exile, or even death.

Några tavlor som är målade av Leonardo Renässans tiden Renässansen var en tid när konstnärlighet och intelligens blomstrade. Folk var vidskepliga och dom flesta var kristna och trodde på vad kyrkan sa och visste ingenting om världen utöver vad som stod i bibeln. Men i 1400-talets Italien, särskilt i staden Florens Uppstod renässansmänniskan, som kunde nästan allt till exempel skulptera, måla tavlor, skriva dikter, spela instrument, göra matematiska uträkningar, konstruera maskiner, rida och fäktas. Människorna öppnade ögonen och började se sig om i världen. En del seglade runt jorden och utforska världen. En utav dom som gjorde det var Christofer Columbus som upptäckte Amerika. Men främst av alla kända renässans människor var Leonardo da Vinci som var mästare på nästan allt. En del vetenskaps män säger att han var född 500 år förtidigt. Till exempel så tillverkade han en fallskärm ca. 300 år innan man börja använda fallskärmen på riktigt, han gjorde kanoner som kunde avfyras utan krut, han byggde gigantiska armborst som hade pilar som vägde ca. 40 kilo, han byggde nästan bomb säkra fästningar, han utforskade människokroppen, och han har målat några av värdens mest kända tavlor.

     Extractions: Updated: Often hailed as the archetypal Renaissance Man, a creative genius equally adept at art, engineering, architecture, and invention, Leonardo da Vinci is still perhaps best known for paintings such as the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper. Though his artistic output was not great, his influence was, and his artistic breakthroughs in perspective and in shading quite literally changed the vision of future painters. Leonardo also wrote a treatise on art and left thousands of pages of drawings on architecture, the human face, botany, physics, engineering, cartography, and anatomya rich treasure trove which modern-day researchers still consult. The numerous notebooks Leonardo produced in his lifetime contain not only this wealth of drawing, but also an accompanying spider-like, mirror text that is still being translated five centuries after his death.
