101 Things You Didn't Know About Da Vincci

>> Sunday, 3 February 2013

Leonardo da Vinci who painted the famous Mona Lisa was born in Italy on April 15 1452. Those who knew metaphysic, please do some calculation and you ll be surprise how almost true, the personality of the number 4 he is in ( and the VIP number he has with him)



Leonardo was born as an illegitimate child. Some claimed her mother was a family servant (or maid)  and had secret romance with his father, whose job as a legal notary job was running in the family. He was brought up by the family of his father and was particularly close with an uncle who own a farm. He spent a lot of time there, and learnt to appreciate the beauty of landscapes, and had them either sketched or painted. Her mother left him, and had family of her own. His father maried several times, and produced him siblings.  

Leonardo never really attended school and was informally taught to read and write at his father's house. In later years he did paiting for the popes, dukes, and kings. Known mainly for his painting, he was also a sculptor, a mathematician, an inventor, a cartographer, a scientist, a musician, a philosopher, a writer, and above all, an influential and intellectual human being. A multy-talented, he is one of the greatest minds of all time.

Several facts about Leonardo that interst me:

  • Leonardo developed a backwards writing code, to keep his ideas secret.
  • Da Vinci is said to have left many of his paintings incomplete. Reportedly, he also destroyed a number of his own works.
  • He was left-handed and always wrote in mirror handwriting, perhaps to guard his ideas from intellectual thieves.
  • Leonardo never married, or have romantic relationship with anybody. But he has good appreciation to good looking man and and turned them into good friends.
