The Vitruvian Man - Leonardo and Stanford University

 

"The Vitruvian Man - you may not know his name, but you've seen him plenty of times before. You know, that multi-limbed man in the square and the circle. You may even know that Leonardo da Vinci drew him. But do you know anything else? Who is this guy, who has somehow become so famous?"

"This site seeks to explain the Vitruvian Man, both as an historical entity and as an image in the modern world. Enjoy!"
