LEONARDO DA VINCI - Artist / Scientist
Leonardo da Vinci is best remembered as the painter of the Mona Lisa (1503-1506) and
The Last Supper (1495). But he's almost equally famous for his astonishing multiplicity
of talents: he dabbled in architecture, sculpture, engineering, geology, hydraulics and
the military arts, all with success, and in his spare time doodled parachutes and flying
achines that resembled inventions of the 19th and 20th centuries. Da Vinci made detailed
drawings of human anatomy which are still highly regarded today.

Leonardo also was quirky enough to write notebook entries in mirror (backwards) script,
a trick which kept many of his observations from being widely known until decades after
this masters death.

Arkahdia Arts Studio,
a European immigrant now living in New York started a studio dedicated to casting these pieces of Art. By focusing the business on two goals;(1) to save pieces which have been produced in another medium in bygone times, and (2) to bring new artist's work to the public, the product lines have prospered, delighted and excited.
