Leonardo DaVinci
Renaissance man
Born on April 15, 1452, in Vinci, Italy, Leonardo da Vinci was concerned with the laws of science and nature, which greatly informed his work as a painter, sculptor, inventor and draftsmen. Da Vinci has been called a genius and the archetypal Renaissance man. His talents inarguably extendedfar beyond his artistic works. Like many leaders of Renaissance humanism, he did not see a divide between science and art.
