Leonardo da Vinci

When i see this picture it makes me think about society. It makes me think this way because of all the inventions Leonardo da Vinci has made. He has helped in so many ways towards our evolution. Da Vinci lived from 1452-1519. His spand of life may seem rather short but back then the average adult lived to be about 30! Leonardo had many paintings, such as; Mona Lisa, Madonna of the Rocks, and the Last Supper. His
Estimated IQ  was believed to be about 220. That's more than any other person to walk this planet. He was an artist for 50 years, but he only completed about 10 pictures. Da Vinci would buy birds at market and set them free because he was a vegetarian and refused to eat meat. He thought that the birds should be released and free. there is to be believed about 30,000 papers left behind from da Vinci. Almost all the papers are still missing. Leonardo da Vinci was believed to be the greatest artist of all times.


Authors note: This picture represents one of Leonardo da Vinci's miraculous inventions. This was his glider he had invented. It was believed that one thing that da Vinci had always wanted to do was to fly. He was inspired by this.
