Visitors to Milan will find an imposing monument here, showing Leonardo da VINCI (1452 to 1519) and four of his students. He was known throughout his life for his extremely diverse fields of interest and is considered one of the greatest polymaths of that epoch, who was involved in the various arts (especially painting, sculpture and architecture) as well as with scientific research (e.g. anatomy).
