He was one of the world’s greatest, and I love reading about him. Here is a quote from Wired.com:
“The tiny brick library in Leonardo Da Vinci’s hometown is putting 3,000 pages of the genius’ work online in a high-resolution, searchable archive.
The Leonardian Library in Vinci, Tuscany, is making the Madrid Codices and the Codex Atlanticus — two collections of scientific and technical drawings — available as a free digital archive called e-Leo.
The EU-financed project will also digitize the Windsor folios and 12 notebooks from the Institut de France for a total of 12,000 pages, creating the most extensive public online archive of Leonardo’s Codes.”
