EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art and knowledge from the genius mind of Leonardo da Vinci. Titled "Study on geometry; writing of Leonardo da Vinci" this artwork can be found in the prestigious British Museum, London. The photograph captures a page from Codex Arundel 263, specifically c. 23v, which dates back to the late 15th and early 16th centuries. This period is known as the High Renaissance, characterized by its emphasis on classical forms and intellectual pursuits. Leonardo da Vinci's mastery in various fields shines through this drawing. The study focuses on geometry, showcasing his deep understanding of mathematical principles. A triangle takes center stage in the composition, symbolizing stability and harmony within its perfectly balanced angles. Surrounding the triangle is an intricate object that displays Da Vinci's meticulous attention to detail. Its purpose remains enigmatic but serves as a testament to his insatiable curiosity about both natural phenomena and man-made inventions. Incorporating elements from Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods further adds depth to this artwork. It represents Europe during the first and second millenniums A. D. , capturing a pivotal era marked by cultural rebirth and artistic innovation. Photographed in 2001, this print allows us to appreciate not only Da Vinci's brilliance but also Alinari's skillful portrayal of his work. The image transports us back in time, inviting contemplation on how one man could possess such extraordinary talent across multiple disciplines.
