Genius indeed, that he was...in many endeavours. Anything he turned his hand to.

We saw DaVinci's Annunciation in Florence for all of 2 seconds last winter before I realised that there was a horrible stench in the room and it was coming from my 2 yr. old. I guess my days of transcendent communion with the works of masters are over for a while. :)Blicky Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08198957897679628835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-48468958806305554452008-10-19T22:34:00.000-05:002008-10-19T22:34:00.000-05:00How wonderful this must have been!

There were dozens of sketches and one unfinished painting, plus some of his students' work. No magnifying glasses though.. that would have been wonderful.
