Leonardo Da Vinci Rediscovering/Remapping the World of the Human Mind

Leonardo da Vinci

Let’s find out if it’s true… Vitruvius wrote:Vitruvius... in the human body the central point is naturally the navel. For if a man be placed flat on his back, with his hands and feet extended, and a pair of compasses centered at his navel, the fingers and toes of his two hands and feet will touch the circumference of a circle described therefrom. And just as the human body yields a circular outline, so too a square figure may be found from it. For if we measure the distance from the soles of the feet to the top of the head, and them apply that measure to the outstretched arms, the breadth will be found to be the same as the height...

Focus of Inquiry Originality and Legacy of Leonardo: the quintessential Renaissance Man A New Vision: The world as A Composition, A Machine

Symmetry "Non mi legga chi non e matematico."Non mi legga chi non e matematico Leonardo da Vinci, Vitruvian Man, 1513, dim. 25 x 19.2 cm Cf. Vitruvius, De Architectura : The Planning of Temples The Regular Solids, one of Leonardo's Illustrations for Pacioli's Divina proportione, Reti p. 70.

Questions 1 [ Leonardo and the Renaissance Man ] 1.1 Why is he often described as the "Universal Renaissance Man"? What are his major achievements?
