This exhibit includes replicas and models of the mechanical devices designed and described by Leonardo da Vinci, along with reproductions of 11 of his most famous paintings.
Sought after and appreciated as an artist at court, Da Vinci was also concerned with scientific subjects, applying his knowledge of mechanics to military and civil engineering works and dedicating himself to the study of anatomy, biology, mathematics and physics. A group of Florentine artisans have spent the last half century studying the original notes and drawings of Da Vinci's various projects, and have created this international exhibition of fully-functional and interactive models of Da Vinci's creations.
