Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519), a towering figure of the Italian Renaissance, was a polymath whose areas of interest included invention, drawing, painting, sculpture, architecture, science, music, mathematics, engineering, literature, anatomy, geology, astronomy, botany, writing, history, and cartography. Often described as the archetype of the Renaissance Man, da Vinci is widely considered one of the greatest painters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived. His contributions to art and science in the form of countless innovations and observations are legendary, and his masterpieces, such as the 'Mona Lisa' and 'The Last Supper,' remain cultural icons to this day. While best known for his artistic works, da Vinci's literary compositions provide insightful views into his thought process and philosophy. 'Thoughts on Art and Life' is a compiled collection of da Vinci's writings which offers a window into the intellectual concerns and insights of this Renaissance master. The writings elucidate his views on aesthetics, the creative process, nature, and life, embodying the very essence of Renaissance humanist ideals. Da Vinci's literary style is reflective of his vast curiosity and analytical prowess, often showcasing a blend of empirical observation and poetic language.
