    Leonardo da Vinci is often thought of mainly as an artist, with world-famous works like The Last Supper and

    Mona Lisa.But his notebooks, filled with his strange writing, show that his main interests were in engineering and technology. If his pioneering work on anatomy ( 解 剖 学 ) is also taken into consideration, it is not hard to see why

After ten years in the workshop of the artist Verrocchio, he began to work for himself. The work he did shows an unbelievable combination of technical skill and very careful observation.

    At the age of thirty, he left his hometown and moved to Milan, where he spent seventeen years working for the Duke of Milan. In fact, his paintings were increasingly influenced by his interest in mathematics. During this period, he painted The Last Supper and developed his ideas for chemical weapons.
