Ebbe nome Lionardo

The early biographical events of Leonardo, from his birth in Vinci to his training in Renaissance Florence and the artist’s unbreakable bond with his homeland, are narrated within an innovative immersive room.

Starting from the impressions conveyed by archival documents, through an installation that masterfully combines sounds, images, and words, the events that testify to Leonardo’s presence in Vinci are retraced.

The video installation tells the story of the da Vinci family, the hypotheses about the identity of his mother Caterina, his relationship with his uncle Francesco, and his first studies of the abacus, reconstructing in a novel way a still little-known period of Leonardo’s life.
