Leonardo began to write his illustrated notebooks in Milan in the years between 1490 and 1495. His work covered four major themes: the science of painting, the particulars of architecture, the elements of the mechanics, and the workings of the human body. He included also writings on such other disciplines as botany, geology, hydrology, flight, etc. These studies and sketches were collected into various codices and manuscripts, which are now hungrily collected by museums and individuals (in 1994 Bill Gates bought the Codex Leicester ("Les-ter") for $30 million). |
