Reflections on Leonardo's Aesthetics is an essay on the relationship between science and art, between theory and practice, in the work of Leonardo da Vinci. Leonardo da Vinci, who thought aesthetically about science and scientifically about aesthetics, always combined different branches of knowledge in his quest for perfection: mathematics, geometry, optics, mechanics, physics...

By questioning everything, he developed a revolutionary way of thinking that freed painting from the servitude of craftsmanship and elevated it to the rank of liberal arts through science.
