april 15, 1452: sculptor, writer, musician, mathematician, painter and inventor, leonardo da vinci was born in florence, italy.

so, that’s cool.

i don’t know if you all knew this, but a few other fun facts are that he’s a direct descendant of jesus christ (according to dan’s brown’s fictional code), and that he was named after one of the teenage mutant ninja turtles (heroes on a half shell), who was named after the star of basketball diaries and the man in the iron mask…and titanic…

also noteworthy are his friends donatello (who does machines), rafael (who is cool, but rude), and michaelangelo (who is a party dude). look it up. it’s all true.
