Leonardo Da Vinci (born
1452, Vinci, Republic of Florence [now in Italy] / died May
2, 1519, Cloux, France), Italian painter, draftsman, sculptor,
architect, and engineer whose genius, perhaps more than that
of any other figure, epitomized the Renaissance humanist ideal.
His Last Supper (1495-97) and Mona Lisa (1503-06)
are among the most widely popular and influential paintings
of the Renaissance. His notebooks reveal a spirit of scientific
inquiry and a mechanical inventiveness that were centuries ahead
of his time.
