EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from the Codice Atlantico, a 15th-century manuscript dedicated to the intriguing study of the eye and the science of vision. Dated back to the year 1490, this precious copy is currently housed at the Science and Technology Museum Leonardo da Vinci in Milan, Italy. The manuscript, a testament to the intellectual curiosity and scientific advancements of the Renaissance era, is a compilation of anatomical drawings and notes made by Leonardo da Vinci himself. The Mechanism of Vision, as depicted in this print, is one of the most fascinating illustrations in the manuscript. It shows Leonardo's meticulous understanding of the human eye and its complex functions. The drawing illustrates the eye as a sophisticated mechanism, with the cornea, iris, and lens depicted in intricate detail. The image also includes the vitreous humor, retina, optic nerve, and the brain's visual cortex, all interconnected in a network of nerves and pathways. Leonardo's groundbreaking work in anatomy and optics laid the foundation for future discoveries in the field of ophthalmology and vision science. His detailed observations and illustrations paved the way for a more comprehensive understanding of the human body and its functions, contributing significantly to the modern age's scientific and medical advancements. The Codice Atlantico, with its wealth of knowledge and intricate drawings, continues to inspire and fascinate scholars, researchers, and art enthusiasts alike. This image, in particular, serves as a reminder of the remarkable intellectual achievements of the Renaissance era and the enduring legacy of Leonardo da Vinci.
