DA VINCI – INVENTIONS - Grande Experiences

Created under the auspices of the Museo Leonardo da Vinci – Rome, Italy, and with the assistance of a number of experts in Italy, the Da Vinci – Inventions experience brings to life the genius of Leonardo as an inventor, artist, scientist, anatomist, engineer, architect, sculptor and philosopher.

The main differences between Da Vinci – The Genius and Da Vinci – Inventions is scale: the Da Vinci Inventions experience offers a smaller footprint and focuses on Leonardo’s inventions and engineering principles.

Working from Leonardo’s codices, Italian Artisans have faithfully crafted life-size machine inventions. These works include the first concepts of a car, bicycle, helicopter, glider, parachute, SCUBA, submarine, a forerunner to the modern military tank and an ideal city, to name a few.

The experience also moves far beyond machine inventions alone, featuring facsimiles of Leonardo’s most famous codices, anatomical studies, Anghiari battle drawings and displays of his renaissance art in actual size.

A high-definition recreation of The Last Supper at actual size (29 x 14.5ft) is an impressive display that complements the entertaining and educational animation presentations of the Vitruvian Man and one of Leonardo’s most ambitious projects – the Sforza horse sculpture.

Suitable for all ages, this amazing exhibition provides a fascinating insight into not only the mind of a genius but also into the fundamental scientific and artistic principles that he discovered. Da Vinci – Inventions is an inspiration for the whole family.’
