“Where the spirit does not lead the hand of the artist, there is no art.”
The great LEONARDO DA VINCI (1452-1519) was born on April 15th. A truly unique universal person! The Italian painter was simultaneously a talented sculptor, architect, botanist, engineer, inventor, mathematician, anatomist, and also a musician and philosopher of the High Renaissance. By self-determination – an engineer-scientist. Made projects for a submarine, propeller, parachute, loom, ball bearing and even flying machines, etc.
Glory to the great master!
