IMAGINE A WORLD WITHOUT SCISSORS AND PARACHUTES!!!
![Page 15: Emma Kious. Full name: Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci Nationality: Italian Birth date: April 15, 1452 Birth place: Vinci, Republic of Florence](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081602/551b5a76550346dd1a8b63f8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
How did he get famous?
Da Vinci became famous because he was an apprentice to Andrea del Verrocchio, who was the best painter and sculptor of his time.
Since people knew Verrocchio, they began to know Leonardo.
At first, Da Vinci helped Verrocchio with some of his paintings
He then became an independent master He made his first scientific drawing not so
long after he became a master

Why weren't all those things
invented at that time?There are many hypothesis:
He didn’t have enough moneyHe didn’t have enough materialsHe tried but it was too risky so he abandoned
![Page 17: Emma Kious. Full name: Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci Nationality: Italian Birth date: April 15, 1452 Birth place: Vinci, Republic of Florence](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081602/551b5a76550346dd1a8b63f8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Here are MY hypothesis: He wasn’t aloud by the government
He tried in secret so he may have succeeded but he maybe wanted to keep it to himself BUT he died maybe earlier than he had planned so he didn’t have time to show everyone
Why weren't all those things
invented at that time?

Conclusion Da Vinci was
ahead of his time (Really?! A
helicopter in the Renaissance!!! THAT’s kinda
cool!)
