Checking out da Vinci’s art in London

in art •  7 years ago 

The level of detail and the atmosphere of this piece is pretty amazing. Apparently there are two versions of the same painting - one in London and other in Paris (Louvre) the atmosphere of the paintings are different though

Yeah its so crazy , you can spend endless time looking at one piece of art , mesmerizing effects!

Leonardo Da Vinci is one of my idols, a true Renaissance Man.

Did you know that the only way to read his journals is by holding them in front of a mirror? He wrote them that way to keep the prying eyes of the Church from reading them.

(The Church chronically suspected him of being a heretic, but couldn't prosecute. Since his other hobbies included dissecting cadavers, Leonardo needed some type of cypher system.)

Pre-encryption?

Thanks for the images. I truly envy your ability to experience Da Vinci's art firsthand.

On another note, I posted the blurb about IOTA's Flash Channels. Are you going to do a piece on that? Maybe compare it to the Lightning Network? And how about ILP and Atomic Swaps?

Always enjoy your posts.

Namaste,

Have you found the Da Vinci Code?

Omigosh, there is Amazing attention to Detail here; I concur -- wholeheartedly.

Well, thank u for bringing #Art into my world today !

Have a fine day

nice pic

Man!! See creativity !!

Love his use of light and dark in this painting. DaVinci was a true genius. Artist and engineer? How does one use both sides of his brain magnificently when so many of us struggle to use just one adequately? lol

Btw, Walter Isaacson has a new DaVinci bio coming out that is on my reading list. I've read several of his other bios and they are fantastic, so if you like to read... Cheers!
