Da Vinci's Leicester Codex - Uffizi Gallery

Curated by Paolo Galluzzi, the exhibit will definitely be a preview of the celebrations for the fifth centenary of the death of one of the most iconic figures in the history of mankind. 

 

Handwritten by Leonardo between 1504 and 1508, the 72 sheets the codex is made of are full of prodigious notes and extraordinary sketches on water and environment. Other marvellous original drawings realized by Leonardo in the same years, in that really “magic” season of the history of Florence, will be on view too, exceptionally lent by many Italian and foreign institutions.
