“Homage to Leonardo da Vinci” A

Collection in homage to Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), genius of the Italian Renaissance who revolutionized the painting and the science. In particular, I took inspiration from the “Codex Leicester on Nature, Weight and Movement of water” about the water and the astronomy, written by Leonardo in the first decade of the 16th century. I freely inspired myself to some details of the sheets of the Codex, where there are notes and drawings about the Earth, the Moon and the Sun. Among these elements I put an image of Leonardo and a piece of the manuscript as background.
