The life inside Leonardo da Vinci posters
Aside from being an artist, scientist and inventor during the Italian Renaissance, this legend is considered by many to
be one of the most talented and intelligent people of all time. The term Renaissance Man applies to someone who does
many things very well, was coined from Leonardo's many talents. Prime motifs in Leonardo da Vinci posters will show you
just why and how. Leonardo was born in the town of Vinci, Italy on April 15, 1452. Not much is known about his
childhood other than his father was wealthy and had a number of wives. About the age of 14 he became an apprentice to a
famous artist named Verrocchio. This is where he learned about art, drawing, painting and more. Many of his best works
are present in our superb assortment of Leonardo da Vinci posters.
The mix of art and science
Leonardo's drawings are also quite extraordinary since he would keep journals full of drawings and sketches, often of
different subjects that he was studying. Some of his drawings were previews to later paintings, some were studies of
anatomy, and some were closer to scientific sketches. One famous drawing is the Vitruvian Man drawing, which you can
see in the Leonardo da Vinci poster entitled Human Figure - Leonardo da Vinci. It is a picture of man who has perfect
proportions based off the notes from the Roman architect Vitruvius. In fact, many of his drawings were on the subject
of anatomy because he studied the human body including many drawings on muscles, tendons and the human skeleton.
The masterpiece in Leonardo da Vinci posters
