Leonardo Da Vinci is one of the most talented people who's ever lived. He was an : Painter, Engineer, Architect, Musician, Scientist, Mathematician, Inventor and Writer. Da Vinci is categorized as the Renaissance man, because of his achievements in art and science, "who's unquenchable curiosity was only equaled by his power of invention." The people of his time described him as a celebrity "his mind and personality seem to us superhuman, the man himself mysterious and remote". As an intellectual and admirer of art I see Leonardo Da Vinci as a role model. You can find out more information at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonardo_da_Vinci
"Because of the multiplicity of his interest that spurred him to pursue every field of knowledge....Leonardo can be considered, quite rightly, to have been the universal genius par excellence, and with all the disquieting overtones inherent to that term. Man is as uncomfortable today, faced with a genius, as he was in the 16th century. Five centuries have passed. Yet we still view Leonardo with awe."
