Genius



Yes, I do believe he does. Leonardo was a great painter and inventor of the Rennaissance time period. Writing an account of Leonardo's life, Giorgio says "...so great was his genius, and such its growth..." ("Medieval"). Leonardo invented such things like how to help men move mountains and way to remove water from low places ("Medieval"). Leonardo's most famous painting, was the Last Supper with Christ and the Apostles ("Medieval"). To keep all of his great ideas a secret he wrote them in code in his notebook. Leonardo da Vinci was a great influential person of the Rennaissance.
