Vitruvian Man (1492) by Leonardo da Vinci. Giclee Print on Museum Quality Matte Paper. Premium Wood Framed Wall Art.

Leonardo da Vinci’s "Vitruvian Man" is an iconic masterpiece that epitomizes the fusion of art and science during the Renaissance. Created in 1492, this drawing is a testament to Leonardo’s genius, illustrating his profound understanding of proportion, anatomy, and the human form. Da Vinci, a polymath of the High Renaissance, was not only a painter but also an architect, engineer, and scientist. Born in 1452 in Vinci, Italy, Leonardo’s insatiable curiosity and inventive imagination led him to explore a vast array of disciplines, making him one of history’s most revered figures.

The "Vitruvian Man" embodies Leonardo’s philosophical approach of harmonizing art with science. The drawing, which is both a work of art and a scientific diagram, is based on the correlations of ideal human proportions with geometry described by the ancient Roman architect Vitruvius. Leonardo’s meticulous pen and ink technique captures the intricate details of the human body, set within a perfect circle and square, symbolizing the universe’s balance and symmetry.

This piece is a significant study of the human form, reflecting the Renaissance ideal of man as the measure of all things. Currently housed in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice, it remains a profound symbol of the era’s intellectual spirit and Leonardo’s unparalleled contribution to art and science.
