The inimitable Leonardo da Vinci needs no introduction: multitalented genius, master painter and polymath who left an indelible mark on the history of art. Not only did he furnish patrons and palaces with masterpieces, but his legacy extends to sketchbooks filled with jaw-dropping inventions including designs for a flying machine, a tank and the first solar energy, all sketched and annotated with his famous back-to-front mirror writing. They are astonishing and the documents can be viewed online as part of the Codex Forster on the V&A website (link below). Da Vinci was light years ahead of his time.
