Line 2:
Line 2: − Born and raised in Vinci, Italy, Leonardo is famous for his beautiful painting of the [[Mona Lisa]]. But painting was by no means Leonardo’s greatest accomplishment. He imagined hundreds of devices that are still used today and were years ahead of their times, such as a [[bicycle]], a [[submarine]], a self-propelling car, a [[steam engine]], a clock, and machine tools. Leonardo sketched these inventions and hundreds more in special notebooks, where he wrote his notes backwards so they could only be read using a mirror.+ − − Another of Leonardo’s famous ideas could be found his sketches and ideas of “flying machines.” Although at the time the idea of flying in the sky seemed like a fantasy, little did Leonardo know his ideas would, hundred’s of years later, become a reality. − − == See also == − [[Painting Masterpieces]] − − − {{DEFAULTSORT:Da Vinci, Leonardo}} − − − [[Category:Artists]] − [[Category:Inventors]] − [[Category:Painting]]
