First Sentence
""This writing in detail about the kites seems to be my destiny, for among my earliest childhood memories, it seemed to me that, as I lay in my cradle, a kite flew down and opened my mouth with its tail, and struck me several times with its tail inside my lips.""
Work Description
Famous in his time as a painter, prankster, and philosopher, Leonardo da Vinci was also a musician, sculptor, and engineer for dukes, popes, and kings. What remains of his work-from futuristic designs and scientific inquiry to artwork of ethereal beauty-reveals the ambitious, unpredictable brilliance of a visionary, and a timeless dreamer.
