Leonardo ser Piero da Vinci was a person that was considered and is considered one of the most smart person that ever existed. Not only because of his artistic skills, but because he was a multi-skilled person that excelled at everything he did. Some of the things that he did were, 'an Italian painter, sculptor, architect, engineer, and scientist,' (ip.galegropu.com). My hero was a very smart person that always gives his best in everything he did, not always finished but always started strong.He teached what he knew to everybody that wanted to learned, and never critic something without background knowledge of it. Even when his work was a considered as the best of the best by some people of the time, he still thought that his works never reach their ultimate potential.
Some of his inventions were impossible to make with the technology at the time, and some inventions are still impossible to make with today's technology. According to 'GeniusStuff.com' Da Vinci's designs were '...spectacularly ahead of his time. If they had actually been built, they might have revolutionized the history of technology.' Indeed, Leonardo's inventions were totally ahead of his time. Some of his inventions were considered stupid by people of his time, but at present time some of his inventions are very used. Just like parachutes, machine guns, diving suits, armored tanks, and some inventions that are not even possible, like armored robotic knights. Leonardo was always thinking ahead of time. About futuristic inventions, most of his inventions were made, not for being used in his lifespan. Some of his inventions were made hundred of years after being planned. Da Vinci's talent was soon wanted by other people. They wanted him to work for them. Just like the ruler from Milan in the time, Ludovico Sforza, 'In the 1480s, da Vinci sought the patronage of Ludovico Sforza, ruler of Milan, whose attention he attracted largely as a consequence of his interest in military engineering and inventions.' Da Vinci's talent was very obvious to other people. They wanted it for their own purposes. He made what he was asked to. Just like he was asked to make inventions to help make the ruler of Milan better in military might. That's when he invented the armored tank. In that time is when he made the armored tank. Because he was asked to make invention increase Milan's ruler military might. Da vinci's inventions were remarkable and very influential even after 500 years of the made date.
Leonardo da Vinci's inventions were considered masterpieces, some of his paints are known worldwide, just like the Mona Lisa, and The Last Supper. The Last Supper was made by painting techniques that Da Vinci himself invented for the paint. According to ic.galegroup.com The Last Supper is 'a fresco, is a true masterwork...' The Last Supper is a very famous paint that a lot of people know. It has a lot of funny parodies in cartoons. Is considered as a very good and smart paint. Even when The Last Supper looks good in actual time, it is known that the paint colors decayed not long after being made. Even when the paint is not as good as before, it is still well known and still looks really good. Even when he gave his best for making his artworks and inventions the best he could. He was still humble about them. He show of. He thought of them as fails. His opinions of his work was, 'I have offended god and mankind because my work didn't reach the quality it should have' Even when Da Vinci's job is very claimed and admired he still think of it as fails. He thought that his work didn't reach the potential it was supposed to get. He doesn't feel sad because he could have done better. He is sad because he thought that people deserved something better than what he did. Da Vinci was very humble not because he didn't show off his work only, but because he tried to teach what he knew to other people. Da Vinci was a nice person that believe that everybody, with practice, could be as good or better than him.
Leonardo ser Piero da Vinci, was an incredibly smart, was very generous and humble, it is proved by his own quotes, and other and it is know that he used to teach people everything he knew. Da Vinci inspire me in being curious, in doing things in not stop discovering new things. He inspires me in thinking ahead of time, and not never set myself limits, and if there is to break them. He is a big motivation that influenced the whole world even after 500 years of being born.
