If you are as smart as Einstein, as innovative as Bill Gates, with the artistic refinement of Picasso and the musical talent of David Matthias; if you are as handsome as Brad Pitt and as skilled in performance as David Copperfield—then are you ready to achieve great things in your dream career? In Italy, Leonardo da Vinci, at the age of 26, possessed many of these qualities.
Leonardo da Vinci painted very few works in his lifetime, and even fewer have survived. His three greatest works—The Last Supper, Mona Lisa, and Battle of Anghiari—were almost completed during a decade of peak creativity. However, only Mona Lisa remains in relatively good condition.
