Exhibition press release: Predominantly recognised as one of history’s greatest painters, Leonardo da Vinci was also a uniquely gifted draughtsman. Using close observation and taking inspiration from the natural phenomena around him, Leonardo created a remarkable body of mechanical drawings that showed a radical approach to the challenge of flight, manufacturing and war. This exhibition was designed and produced by Cité des Sciences, a Universcience site, in cooperation with the Museo Nazionale della Scienza e della Tecnologia Leonardo da Vinci (MUST) and with the support of its inductrial partner Airbus Group. The exhibition is supported by players of People’s Postcode Lottery and runs at the Science Museum until 4 September 2016.
