Leonardo da Vinci
My interest to Leonardo da Vinci's creation began after i had visited an exhibition of his works called "Genius da Vinci", that came to Kazan from Europe.
Frankly speaking, at first, i didn't think it would be so fantastic! I was impressed by Leonardo da Vinci's pictures, sketches and inventions, for instance "Hand-flipper", "Floats for Walking on Water", "Weight study Mechanism or Compound Hoist", "Jack", "Hanging Moveable Bridge", different flying facilities and so on. Moreover, there was a special exhibition called "Mystery of Mona Liza".
As for as i know, Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci was born on 15th April 1452 near the town Vinci. If i am not mistaken, he was a son of a young notary Piero da Vinci and a certain Caterine.
Leonardo da Vinci was the greatest Italian artist (painter, sculptor, architect), scientist (anatomist, naturalist), inventor, writer and one of the biggest representatives of High Renaissance's art.
His most famous pictures are "Mona Liza", "The Last Supper", "The Lady with an Ermine" and "Madonna in the Church".
Leonardo da Vinci died on 2th May 1519 in France.
In conclusion, i would like to add that Leonardo da Vinci went down in history as a genius, who outstripped his epoch.

I believe it was Galileo Galilei who was put under house arrest! For his conflicting ideas about the universe, more specifically because he claimed that the earth revolved around the sun, and not the sun around the earth. The church refused to believe this because it's in conflict with the church's beliefs, and in order to prevent him spreading the idea that the earth might revolve around the sun, they put him under house arrest.

It is very sad to think that he was under house arrest. For speaking the truth to the church
