Leonardo da Vinci






As an ordinary person, i really admire Leonardo da Vinci's art work. When I was a little boy he was one of my favorite painter. Even now, his masterwork is really an extra ordinary piece. I dreamed of a time that someday I can be like him. Someday, I hope that my masterwork will be also remembered.











Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci (April 15, 1452 – May 2, 1519) was an Italian polymathpaintersculptorarchitectmusicianscientistmathematicianengineer,inventoranatomistgeologistcartographerbotanist and a writer. Leonardo has often been described as the archetype of the Renaissance man, a man whose unquenchable curiosity was equaled only by his powers of invention. He is widely considered to be one of the greatestpainters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived.According to art historian Helen Gardner, the scope and depth of his interests were without precedent and "his mind and personality seem to us superhuman, the man himself mysterious and remote". Marco Rosci points out, however, that while there is much speculation about Leonardo, his vision of the world is essentially logical rather than mysterious, and that the empirical methods he employed were unusual for his time.
