  About Da Vinci   关于达・芬奇   Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci was an Italian polymath: painter, sculptor, architect, musician, scientist, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist and writer.   Leonardo is widely considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived. Born the illegitimate son of a notary, Piero da Vinci, and a peasant woman, Caterina, at Vinci in the region of Florence, Leonardo was educated in the studio of the renowned Florentine painter, Verrocchio. Much of his earlier working life was spent in the service of Ludovico il Moro in Milan. He later worked in Rome, Bologna and Venice and spent his last years in France, at the home awarded him by Francis I.   Leonardo was and is renowned primarily as a painter. Among his works, the Mona Lisa is most famous and most parodied portrait and The Last Supper the most reproduced religious painting of all time, with their fame approached only by Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam. Leonardo’s drawing of the Vitruvian Man is also regarded as a cultural icon, being reproduced on everything from the euro to text books to t-shirts. Perhaps fifteen of his paintings survive the small number due to his constant, and frequently disastrous, experimentation with new techniques, and his chronic procrastination. Nevertheless, these few works, together with his notebooks, which contain drawings, scientific diagrams, and his thoughts on the nature of painting, compose a contribution to later generations of artists only rivaled by that of his contemporary, Michelangelo.   Leonardo is revered for his technological ingenuity. He conceptualized a helicopter, a tank, concentrated solar power, acalculator, the double hull and outlined a rudimentary theory of plate tectonics. Relatively few of his designs were constructed or were even feasible during his lifetime, but some of his smaller inventions, such as an automated bobbin winder and a machine for testing the tensile strength of wire, entered the world of manufacturing unheralded. He made important discoveries in anatomy, civil engineering, optics, and hydrodynamics, but he did not publish his findings and they had little to no influence on later science.   列奥纳多・达・芬奇是整个欧洲文艺复兴时期最完美的代表。他思想深邃，学识渊博，是一位多才多艺的画家、寓言家、雕塑家、发明家、哲学家、音乐家、医学家、生物学家、地理学家、建筑工程师和军事工程师。他是一位天才，他一面热心于艺术创作和理论研究，研究如何用线条与立体造型去表现形体的各种问题；另一方面他也同时研究自然科学，为了真实感人的艺术形象，他广泛地研究与绘画有关的光学、数学、地质学、生物学等多种*。他的艺术实践和科学探索精神对后代产生了重大而深远的影响。   达・芬奇的艺术作品不仅能像镜子似的反映事物，而且还以思考指导创作，从自然界中观察和选择美的部分加以表现。壁画《*的晚餐》、祭坛画《岩间圣母》和肖像画《蒙娜丽莎的微笑》是他一生的三大杰作。这三幅作品是达・芬奇为世界艺术宝库留下的珍品中的珍品，是欧洲艺术的拱顶之石。
