EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a rare glimpse into the brilliant mind of Leonardo da Vinci, showcasing his "Notes on mathematics" from the renowned Arundel Codex 263. Housed in the esteemed British Museum of London, this particular page, c. 38r, offers a fascinating insight into da Vinci's mathematical prowess. Dating back to approximately 1478-1518, these notes exemplify da Vinci's multifaceted genius as he delved into various subjects spanning mathematics and natural sciences. The intricate details meticulously penned by the artist himself reveal his deep understanding and exploration of numerical concepts during the High Renaissance period. Leonardo da Vinci's artistic mastery is well-known worldwide; however, this lesser-known aspect of his work showcases his profound contributions to scientific knowledge as well. Combining both Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles, this artwork represents an intersection between art and science that defined Europe during this era. The photograph itself was taken in 2001 with utmost care to capture every nuance of Leonardo's handwriting and sketches. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy left behind by one of history's greatest polymaths. As we gaze upon this image today, we are reminded not only of Leonardo da Vinci's immense talent but also how he seamlessly merged disciplines that were once considered separate entities. This print invites us to appreciate the beauty found within mathematical equations while marveling at an extraordinary mind that transcended time and continues to inspire generations across different fields of study.
