This exhibition was at the Queen’s Gallery at Buckingham Palace, which was a first for me, and also my mum, who came along. Leonardo was a heck of a polymath, although one can’t help feeling he must have had access to, and cut up, really quite a lot of animals and people, in a way which would be…really weird. Mind you, I guess Damien Hirst and Ron Mueck have done that a bit – although they definitely are weird.
It seems a mistake to regard Leonardo as primarily an artist (as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles would have us believe, at any rate, lumping him in with Donatello, Raphael and Michelangelo), when really he was mainly a draughtsman, engineer and even a cartographer.
Also lovely to see my mum, of course. 🙂
