| Synopsis: |
Painter, sculptor, architect, musician, scientist, mathemati cian, engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist, and writer, Leonardo da Vinci was a genius who was well ahead of his time and the best example of the Renaissance man. This is the story of one of the greatest painters of all time, and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived. Leonardo grew up in the hamlet of Anchiano in Tuscany where he received an informal educati on. Young Leonardo had an unquenchable curiosity in life and moved to Florence where he took an interest in painti ng. At the age of fourteen, Leonardo began an apprenti ceship with Andrea del Verrocchio. Here, his talent blossomed and as fate would have it, he was soon employed by the rich and powerful Duke of Milan. Soon, Leonardo moved to the city of Rome, where some of the greatest artists of the time lived. This tale traces the fascinati ng life of one of the best and most famous artists that the world has ever seen. |
