Who is Leonardo Da Vinci?

Born in 1452 in Vinci, Italy, Leonardo da Vinci focused on the laws of sciences and nature early in his life. This respect and knowledge allowed him to depict these things in his artwork. They not only helped inform him as a painter, but also as a sculptor, draftsmen, and an inventor. At the age of 15, da Vinci became the apprentice of the painter Andrea del Verrochio in Florence, where his skills as an artist developed, flourished and even intimidated his mentor. While always interested in inventions, it was a change of scenery in 1482 that truly unleashed the inventor in da Vinci. Between 1505 to 1507 Leonardo da Vinci created his most famous piece of artwork, but also possibly one of the most well-known, and the most famous pieces of artwork which has ever been crafted in the world, The Mona Lisa. After envisioning hundreds of inventions, bringing to life legendary works of art and making breakthroughs in a vast array of other fields, ranging from astronomy to architecture, da Vinci died in 1519 at the age of 67.
