More about ~Leonardo da Vinci~

*Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519): The Visionary Who Bridged Beauty, Science, and Spirit

He was born on April 15, 1452, in Vinci, Italy -during the height of the Italian Renaissance, a period when art, science, and human thought flourished with new freedom. He died on May 2, 1519, leaving behind not just paintings and inventions, but an immortal legacy as one of the greatest minds in human history.

Often called a universal genius, Leonardo was not only a painter, but also an anatomist, engineer, philosopher, and inventor. His art was never separate from his science - he believed that to truly portray the human form, one had to understand how it worked from the inside out.

*Leonardo's Artistic Admiration for the Woman’s Body

da Vinci had a deep and respectful fascination with the human body and particularly, the female form. To him, the woman's body was not just an object of beauty, but a symbol of divine proportion, mysterious harmony, and powerful grace.

Unlike many of his contemporaries who painted women as passive or idealized figures, Leonardo’s women often embodied:

Inner strength and calmness
Subtle emotional depth
Sacred symbolism of life and nature

*Examples of His Admiration:

La Scapigliata (The Lady with Disheveled Hair) - An unfinished yet hauntingly beautiful portrait that captures the quiet grace of a woman, suspended between form and soul. Her gentle, almost dreamlike presence shows Leonardo’s love for the soft mystery of femininity.

Virgin of the Rocks - A masterpiece of sacred femininity, placing the Virgin Mary in a natural grotto. Leonardo paints her not as an icon, but as a real, breathing woman, radiating protective energy and divine calm.

Anatomical Studies - Leonardo dissected over 30 human bodies in secret, including women. His anatomical drawings of the female body - especially the womb, fetus, and reproductive system - were centuries ahead of his time. He approached it not with cold science, but with wonder.

> In his notebooks, he wrote:
“The human body is an instrument for the soul - a divine machine made of geometry and motion.”

~In a time when women were often portrayed in religious or ornamental roles, Leonardo saw more.

He viewed the woman’s body as:

A blueprint of nature's intelligence
A sacred vessel of life
A structure built on perfect mathematical ratios, just like the universe

He didn’t just paint beauty.
He studied, measured, celebrated, and respected it.

So,
To Leonardo da Vinci, the woman’s body was not just art -
It was the meeting point of creation, science, and spirit.

In honoring it, he wasn’t worshiping form.
He was seeking truth - in curves, in muscle, in soul.
