DaVinci The True Renaissance


Da Vinci did a lot in his life during the Renaissance. He was an architect, an artist, a scientist, and an inventor. He did more than any other men in this time period, for he invented numerous contraptions to fly, fight, and to make life easier. He re-introduced oil painting, which made colors richer and more realistic. He also was someone who took corpses and held autopsies to find out more about the human body. He disrespected his religion, which was to respect the dead, just for his need of knowledge. He built cannons for war, and drew wonderful paintings. He even inveted a plaster that you can paint on before it dries. Clearly, Leonardo Da Vinci is a true Renaissance Man.
