Leonardo Da Vinci- A True Renaissance Man


The renaissance was the rebirth of inquiry, rediscovery and refinement. Da Vinci sought out truth, information, answers and knowledge. He had an interest in discovering both old and new knowledge, and making it better, a curiosity in the world around him and discovered multiple ideas for new technology. Da Vinci was a self-taught architect, engineer, artist, mathematician, scientist and inventor. Because he was so precise his sketches and paintings are amazingly detailed and proportional. Da Vinci had an obvious interest in the flight of birds and was the first to think of the hot air balloon, cannon, tank and many other magnificent ideas. Leonardo Da Vinci was truly a renaissance man.
