So we gaze at that embryo, curled up and small. It is human latency, powerfully contained and powerfully expressed. It is an old man's contemplation of the primacy of human life.

Leonardo's unrelenting belief that truth is revealed in nature brought him at last to the ultimate act of human creativity. In an odd way, that tiny human form, curled up in a ball, about to flower into the world, might be one of the most powerful images Leonardo left for us.

And, seeing that child, we know that Leonardo's search for external truth has led, at last, to a far more internal truth. We know that he's reached a truth not only deep within the human body -- but deep within his own psyche as well. ref

Going out on a limb here, but the only ways someone of that century could know the fetal position is to have had a very friendly and agreeable pregnant lady ... or he had an opportunit to see or be witness to an autopsy of a pregnant cadaver

Maybe Leonardo was combatting the pro-murder ghouls of his day, as well.

His baby looks like a little man...Like curious Benjamin Button.

Absolutely amazing. Thanks.

All Your works shall give thanks to You, O LORD,
And Your godly ones shall bless You.

When you love someone, you desire nothing else, nothing more than simply to be with them.

This is what Jesus did for our sakes, and more, while we were yet His enemies.
