Segment 1:
For over 500 years, people have marveled at the incredible mind of Leonardo da Vinci. The son of a gentleman and a peasant woman, da Vinci distinguished himself as a master painter early on, but his imaginations led him beyond the art world, from designing a tank to imagining a helicopter to drawing detailed studies of the human body. A new exhibit at The Leonardo focuses on da Vinci’s achievements. On Monday, we talk about the new exhibit and the life of the ultimate Renaissance Man.
Guests:
- Bryton Sampson, The Leonardo
