Su creatividad, como la de todo gran innovador, resultó de la intersección entre la tecnología y las humanidades.

He shows how Leonardo’s genius was based on   skills we can improve in ourselves, such as passionate curiosity, careful   observation, and an imagination so playful that it flirted with   fantasy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e He produced the two most famous paintings in history, The Last Supper and   the Mona Lisa. But in his own mind, he was just as much a man of science and   technology. With a passion that sometimes became obsessive, he pursued   innovative studies of anatomy, fossils, birds, the heart, flying machines,   botany, geology, and weaponry. His ability to stand at the crossroads of the   humanities and the sciences, made iconic by his drawing of Vitruvian Man,   made him history’s most creative genius.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e His creativity, like that of other great innovators, came from having   wide-ranging passions. He peeled flesh off the faces of cadavers, drew the   muscles that move the lips, and then painted history’s most memorable smile.   He explored the math of optics, showed how light rays strike the cornea, and   produced illusions of changing perspectives in The Last Supper. Isaacson also   describes how Leonardo’s lifelong enthusiasm for staging theatrical   productions informed his paintings and inventions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Leonardo’s delight at combining diverse passions remains the ultimate   recipe for creativity. So, too, does his ease at being a bit of a misfit:   illegitimate, gay, vegetarian, left-handed, easily distracted, and at times   heretical. His life should remind us of the importance of instilling, both in   ourselves and our children, not just received knowledge but a willingness to   question it—to be imaginative and, like talented misfits and rebels in any   era, to think different.","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Trade Paper","offer_id":47109955911890,"sku":"9781947783737","price":25.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/indigo-pre-prod.myshopify.com\/fr\/products\/leonardo-da-vinci-la-biografia-leonardo-da-vinci","provider":"Indigo Pre-Prod","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
