About this ebook

Leonardo da Vinci was a gifted painter, talented musician, and dedicated scientist and inventor, designing flying machines, submarines, and even helicopters.  Yet he had a hard time finishing things, a problem anyone can relate to.  Only thirteen paintings are known to be his; as for the illustrated encyclopedia he intended to create, all that he left were thousands of disorganized notebook pages.  Here is an accessible portrait of a fascinating man who lived at a fascinating time—Italy during the Renaissance.

Ratings and reviews

Great book but, I want my students to read it together in Art class. I have a degree in Art but I feel like a crook converting your file to be usable in my class. Please provide a PDF(or something usable) so That I can project it in my Zoom class or utilize with the Smart learning suit. If you can't do that please consider making your books accessible to teachers in poor districts.I'd pay for a class pack out of pocket but I can't afford enough for all (800+) of my students. We have to share books here. You're missing a whole market! I kinda wasted my money because I brought a physical copy and a digital copy. Hoping to use the digital one in class.

I study him because he is a artist and I want to be a artist so he is my favorite man in history

Very astounding!
