"The Biography of Leonardo da Vinci" is the fifth book I have read in 2020. This book has changed my understanding of human potential.
I remember five years ago, I read Dan Brown’s classic work "The Da Vinci Code". At that time, I thought, is there any better detective novel than this book? After reading the book "The Biography of Leonardo da Vinci", I really want to repeat what I said before. Is there any better biography than this book?
Like many people, when I mentioned Leonardo da Vinci before, I only thought of two paintings, "Mona Lisa" and "The Last Supper". Therefore, in my understanding of Leonardo da Vinci, he is An internationally renowned painter, in Leonardo da Vinci's own eyes, painting was just one of his many talents. Just like what he wrote in his original cover letter, he listed his outstanding contributions in many fields. At the end of the writing, he seemed to remember, oh, I am also capable of everything in painting.
Da Vinci let me know how great a person can be. Throughout his life, he made great achievements in physics, biology, anatomy, astronomy, optics, military, architecture, and philosophy. , music and other aspects have extremely high attainments, oh, by the way, he is also a painter.
An important factor in achieving such greatness is that Leonardo da Vinci had a very strong curiosity. Before his death, Leonardo was still exploring something that had nothing to do with him - the woodpecker. What does the tongue look like. This matter has no practical use for Leonardo's life, nor for us, but after reading Leonardo's story, we should wonder like Leonardo, who will "describe the woodpecker" Tongue” is written on his diverse and inspiring to-do list. It's all just out of curiosity, pure curiosity.
