Happy International Left Handers Day!

Leonardo Da Vinci is just one of many famous left handers. Check out this e-book about Da Vinci online: Leonardo Da Vinci - Artist, Thinker, and Man of Science.

Leonardo Da Vinci by Eugene Muntz

Not only was Leonardo da Vinci (1453-1519) an astonishing painter, but also a scientist, anatomist, sculptor, architect, musician, engineer, inventor, and more. The question is rather, what was he not? During the Italian Renaissance, he mastered the most beautiful works of art for the Medicis' in Italy and for the King of France. He aroused admiration from his contemporaries, who depicted a universal genius, curious and virtuous. Even today, interest in da Vinci and his work does not fade; his works and writings are still studied by foremost experts hoping to decipher one of the numerous secrets of this visionary artist.

Leonardo Da Vinci's unparalleled contributions to the worlds of art and science have been widely acknowledged. In this, Da Vinci–authority Eugéne Müntz's guide to the Da Vinci drawings now housed in Windsor Castle, one of the lesser-known facets of the great artist's genius can be explored in full-color photographs. Muntz's painstaking scholarship and extensive study of Da Vinci's work allow readers to experience his mastery of figurative representation, artistic innovation, and scientific imagination.

This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
