Born in 1452 in the small village of Vinci in Florence, Italy, little Leonardo grew up fascinated by the world around him, studying nature, sketching animals and dreaming of machines that could fly. At the age of 15 he became an apprentice to an artist and trained in painting and sculpture. As an artist, Leonardo created some of the most famous paintings in history, including the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper. But his talents didn't stop there...

Throughout his life, Leonard set himself challenges. Lacking any real formal education, at the age of 30 he taught himself Latin. Around this time, he moved to Milan to work for the ruling Sforza family as an engineer, sculptor, painter and architect. From designing flying machines to sketching the first ideas for submarines and robots, Leonardo's brilliant and technical mind meant he was always thinking centuries ahead of his time.
