πŸ“œ I'm pretty sure all know the Vitruvian Man by Leonardo Da Vinci, possibly the most iconic drawing in history, representing the perfect proportion of a man's body and the perfect connection between Art and Science ❀️‍πŸ”₯

I'm also pretty sure few know that the original drawing is held here in Venice, at the Accademia Galleries.
It's rarely displayed and visitable, due to the fraility of this invaluable work.

After many years this masterpiece is visitable starting from today until July 27, 2025 part of the fantastic Exhibition entitled Corpi Moderni.

πŸ‘‰ All info here.
