Friday 15 November 2019 – The Genius of Leonardo Da Vinci
Booking Months: September, October
Cost: To be advised
Location: Letcombe Regis Village Hall, OX12 9LJ
Leonardo da Vinci was a painter and draughtsman of the High Renaissance, whose works were informed by scientific investigation. The day will cover his paintings, anatomical and scientific drawings, which make an incredible contribution to our early understanding of anatomy, aeronautics, cartography, warfare and engineering, to name but a few.
Leonardo was justifiably described by Kenneth Clarke as the most relentlessly curious man of all time.
