>>215832The Vitruvian Man exemplifies the blend of art and science during the Renaissance and provides the perfect example of Leonardo's keen interest in proportion. In addition, this picture represents a cornerstone of Leonardo's attempts to relate man to nature. Encyclopaedia Britannica online states, "Leonardo envisaged the great picture chart of the human body he had produced through his anatomical drawings and Vitruvian Man as a cosmografia del minor mondo (cosmography of the microcosm). He believed the workings of the human body to be an analogy for the workings of the universe." It is also believed by some that Leonardo symbolized the material existence by the square and spiritual existence by the circle. Thus he attempted to depict the correlation between these two aspects of human existence.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitruvian_man

>>215857no wai, ru serial?
can someone post a hr?
>>215421If you see a drawing of The Mona Lisa, she has eyebrows. This is because, before the invention of Cameras, the curators were cleaning the painting with little cotton swabs and cleaned the eyebrows off. I haven't actualy read this, but I would assume they cleaned off the first one...shit themselves...and then evened it out.
