...Patience. It is hard to imagine a man with a clearer eye or a more far-ranging mind. Leonardo might stop work on a painting to dissect a cadaver and make meticulous studies of its musculature so that he could better understand the twist of a body or the shape of an arm. He took as his province the total knowledge of mankind (which was then manageable), and painting was only a part of it. Even when he was famed the length and breadth of Italy and crowned heads and prelates were besieging him for paintings, he pronounced himself...
