    Also, the mysterious smile isn’t just mysterious because of his knowledge of anatomy. He understood how our eye readjusts the values of a scene depending on where you look, e.g. your periphery is blurry. So he basically played with that concept and created a smile that disappears and reappears.

Personally, based on all his strokes of genius, which are freakishly ahead of his time, e.g., functional parachute, understanding of the heart valves, mapping of the nerves, accurately diagnosing a centenarians death as coronary artery disease, bridge technology, scuba suit, functional robots, etc., I believe it was on purpose. Considering all that, it’s not hard to imagine that his understanding of values and how the eye works led him to create the worlds first interactive painting. It doesn’t seem like that big of a stroke of genius for someone like Leonardo, considering that one can understand how our eyes readjust values if you pay close attention to your perception.

    The greatest irony in Painting is that the two arguably greatest technically gifted painters - Leonardo and Michelangelo - actually disliked painting and viewed it as a laborious vocation. Leonardo preferred scientific pursuits while Michelangelo preferred sculpting… Also, Leonardo likely never published his scientific work because it likely would have had him excommunicated and branded a heretic by the Catholic Church…which could have had him executed. He studied the cadavers in secret in the middle of the night.

    Davinci's works were so formidable because of his artistic training. There really wasn't a difference between Artist and Scientist during periods like the Renaissance because all of the greatest engineers and thinkers were also some of the greatest artists. That's why STEM is such a weak curriculum because it cuts out the heart of what made the Renaissance thinkers so ingenuitive. STEAM curriculum (Science, Tech, Engineering, Fine Arts, and Math) is a much more fully and accurate concept and curriculum set up as colleges are seeing a nearly 30% dropout rate in STEM related majors because those students never had a fully developed education. The fact that so many people don't understand this is frustrating because it continues to devalue art in society when artists used to be more powerful than royalty.

    Misleading title. Da Vinci was an artist at heart. Through careful observation and a need to understand the truth of what he was recreating he made discoveries which at the time were scientifically progressive. From a technical aspect, capturing the world around us is one of the essences of being an artist. Perhaps because of the ignorance of the general public at the time these observations would have been seen as scientific since the aforementioned skill is attributed to it as well. But da Vinci was undoubtedly very smart and talented. And what does it mean to be an artist? Science and art are two branches of the same tree. Don’t put them against each other like in the title.

    A very educational video now that we have spent three decades questioning his inventive genius in science and his inconstant character. Leonardo was also a great draftsman and anatomist. What is moving is not Leonardo but your persistent LOVE for Leonardo. It is not the kiss on the mouth or on the neck of the couple that one can look away from, but the complicity and the fact that they are literally glued all the time in a superhuman way. I'm talking about love, I'm not talking about descriptive style or sensuality, that's what irresistibly marks great works.

    A century or two before Leonardo da Vinci, Wang Chen, fl. 1290-1333) was a Chinese mechanical engineer, agronomist, inventor, writer, and politician of the Yuan dynasty (1271-1368). He was one of the early innovators of the wooden movable type printing technology. His illustrated agricultural treatise was also one of the most advanced of its day, covering a wide range of equipment and technologies available in the late 13th and early 14th century. Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci[b] (15 April 1452 - 2 May 1519) simply improved the many drawings of Taccola. Mariano di Jacopo (1382 - c. 1453), called Taccola ("the jackdaw"), was an Italian polymath, administrator, artist and engineer of the early Renaissance. Taccola is known for his technological treatises De ingeneis and De machinis, which feature annotated drawings of a wide array of innovative machines and devices. Taccola's work was widely studied and copied by later Renaissance engineers and artists, among them Francesco di Giorgio, and Leonardo da Vinci.[2] Coincidentally, Taccola's many drawings look very similar to those compiled by Wang Chen's Nong Shu, an encyclopedia compiling centuries of Chinese inventions. See Gavin Menzies book 1434, how this Nong Shu encyclopedia may have reached Florence artist scientists at the onset of the Renaissance.

    Leonardo da Vinci si ritrasse come genio nell’Uomo Vitruviano e come mago nell’Autoritratto conservato a Torino. Il genio ha sempre qualcosa di misterioso nella sua genesi e nelle sue manifestazioni. Quello di Leonardo da Vinci si esprimeva spesso attraverso processi inclusivi, speculari. Il moltiplicarsi all’infinito dell’immagine di un oggetto posto tra due specchi piani paralleli, ne è una tipica situazione. Effetto ottico che i geni, specie quelli artistici, in vari modi, ricreano nelle loro opere. Questo modo di operare in Leonardo si riscontra nei suoi scherzi, esperimenti, scritti e soprattutto nei quadri. Come il mago, per mezzo di forze occulte incide sulla materia, e l’alchimista la trasforma per mezzo della pietra filosofale. Così per Leonardo, le sue attività private, non sottoposte a committenza esterna, sono sostanzialmente opere di trasformazioni. Leonardo è un mago alchimista tecnologico. Paradigmatica per Leonardo è la trasformazione della luce in ombra. Trasformava i volti umani mediante caricature. S’interessa di trasformazioni di solidi con volumi identici, di trasformare un cerchio in un quadrato, trasforma due uova di struzzo nel primo mappamondo in cui è raffigurato il continente americano, con due lenti progetta il primo cannocchiale e con due ruote di legno la prima bicicletta, si occupa della trasformazione di materiale organico in nuovi composti inorganici, e di trasformare materiali inorganici in materia vivente. Progetta l’uomo artificiale tramite i suoi prototipi di robot, con le sue macchine volanti vuol rendere l’uomo un uccello e con quelle subacquee un pesce. Studia di trasformare i corsi dei fiumi e il territorio. Come un veggente, mago e profeta si vedeva nel passato e nel futuro e trasformò la sua immagine adulta, in alcune sue opere pittoriche, in un autoritratto da bambino e da anziano. Nel Cenacolo coglie la trasformazione più vertiginosa, rappresenta anche l’istituzione dell’Eucarestia, la trasformazione della materia nella divinità. Nella Battaglia di Anghiari nella furia della lotta trasforma uomini in cavalli o destrieri in uomini. Trasforma il suo famoso Autoritratto nel volto della Gioconda. Nella sua opera pittorica più libera da commissioni, la Gioconda, trasforma la morte nella vita, se come validamente ipotizzò il linguista Mario Alinei, la Gioconda è anche il ritratto di una donna morta con gli occhi aperti, come se fosse viva. Leonardo che dipinse molte Madonne con il Bambino, nella Gioconda ha raffigurato la sua ultima Madonna. Una apparizione mariana. La sua ultima magia è stata la realizzazione della Sindone di Torino? www.amazon.it/genio-Leonardo-Vinci.../dp/B09FFSC815/

    The character we see in the famous portrait at the Louvre is not that of Lisa del Giocondo or Mona Lisa, but that of Isabella of Aragon and Sforza, the daughter of the King of Naples Alfonso II of Aragon. Isabella married her cousin Gian Galeazzo Sforza, the heir to the Duchy of Milan, to strengthen ties between the Kingdom of Naples and the Duchy of Milan. Leonardo da Vinci was at that time in the service of Ludovico Sforza, Gian Galeazzo's uncle who was regent at the court of Milan. Isabella's young husband died prematurely at the age of 25 without having been able to exercise power, said to have been assassinated on his uncle's orders. The German historian Maike Vogt-Luerssen tells us that after her widowhood, Isabella and Leonardo formed a secret couple and had 5 children. So it is the portrait of his beloved that Leonardo da Vinci made, which explains why he took it to Amboise in France and kept it until the end of his life, as we keep a family photo nowadays. So there was an emotional bond with Isabella that did not exist with Lisa del Giocondo whose portrait was just a commission. The research I have done myself on the landscape indicates that it is based on an authentic place, which would confirm Maike Vogt-Luerssen's theory, as it probably pays tribute to Isabella of Aragon's family origins. It seems obvious to me that the identity of the character in this portrait has been confused between an order actually received, that of the silk merchant's wife, and the portrait of Leonardo's companion which is the one we see today at the Louvre. All of this is probably well known today to the so-called specialists of Leonardo da Vinci, who do not want to recognize the inconsistencies of the official version, because they have spent their whole life defending a version they know today is outdated. As Mark Twain said, "It's easier to fool people than to convince them they've been fooled".
