Since listening to Walter Isaacson’s biography on Leonardo da Vinci on audio, I’ve become a bit obsessed. The creator of the two most famous paintings in history is clearly a genius and Isaacson shows us how much we can learn from him. Decoding da Vinci on PBS NOVA is the documentary version of the book. Why I wasn’t taught about da Vinci in primary school is beyond me. I might have been a lot more interested in my education had I learned about this incredibly creative human being.
You can watch the documentary in its entirety here. I recommend the largest screen available, for obvious reasons. If I could go back 25 years in time I would sit with my children and watch it together.
