The Man of The Renaissance


Leonardo Da Vinci was a truly remarkable man. He created some of the most famous paintings like the Mona Lisa and invented some of the closest things to flight in his era. Even though it is not well known, Leonardo Da Vinci helped the Renaissance come about and helped sustain it. He was an ambassador of rediscovering and refining which was what the Renaissance was about. For example he lived in Italy most happening places in the renaissance. There he learned a lot about culture and tried improving it in anyway possible. He became a major artist in Italy due to his very proportional drawings. He also the he was recruited by the French king. This helped bring about the Renaissance because he brought the knowledge he had gained in Italy to France making the French more aware of arts and culture. He also helped the Renaissance understand the Human Anatomy. Leonardo dissected countless bodies just to study the human body. This sparked an interest in science in the Renaissance. Leonardo was a very inspiring man. He developed all the arts to make the Renaissance a lot more urbanized. He just may be one of the most significant characters in the Renaissance.
