Leonardo Was So Weird

A cool illustration of Leonardo by Joost Swarte, from a January 2005 New Yorker article that helped put Leonardo into perspective while reviewing several contemporary books about him.

Leonardo was from another planet? well, that would explain a lot.

Interesting concept. Might have to look up that article as well when I get the chance.

His genius and skill does seem beyond belief, but I think our world was just lucky; also that his father took an interest in him, and set him on the right road, or who knows how his talents may have been undiscovered or wasted.
