The article cites DaVinci’s “wacky piano”.
Methinks the “urinal-ist” is a mite jealous of Leo’s creativity as well as musical prowess.
Men like Leonardo Da Vinci don’t come very often.
He was a polymath (a person whose expertise spans a significant number of different subjects): painter, sculptor, architect, musician, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist, and writer.
His genius, perhaps more than that of any other figure, epitomized the Renaissance humanist ideal. Leonardo has often been described as the archetype of the Renaissance Man, a man of “unquenchable curiosity” and “feverishly inventive imagination”.
He is widely considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived.
According to art historian Helen Gardner, the scope and depth of his interests were without precedent and “his mind and personality seem to us superhuman, the man himself mysterious and remote”.
I think his genius was rivalled only by that of his contemporary, Michelangelo.
