PREMISE

A psyco-physical condition exists 
able to connect 
our mind with his ancestral past. 

In this subliminal state 
the millennial experience of the man 
flows free in our mind,
making it able to realize
those admirable prodigies 
well recognized in the history. 

The Gioconda "Light" 
was created by Mazzilli
in the chromosomal ecstasy. 

she was perceived and compenetrated, 
with the clear eyes of the mind 
to make it extremely near 
to the original, how if
Leonardo could  paint it today.

LEONARDO DA VINCI,
THE DIVINE ARTIST IN THE CENTURIES 
(1452-1519)

Leonardo da Vinci was born in April 15, 1452 in Vinci, Italy. 
Leonardo's mastery in art, science and engineering 
have earned him a place among the most prolific geniuses of history.

At age 17, Leonardo and his father moved to Florence, 
where he apprenticed to Verrocchio. 
His brilliance soon eclipsed that of his master. 
In 1472 Leonardo became a member of the painter's guild of Florence, 
where he had contact with other great Florentine artists 
including Michelangelo Buonarroti.

In 1481 Leonardo left Florence for Milan 
to offer his service to the local Duke. 
During this period he painted the "Madonna of the Rocks" 
and the "Last Supper." In 1499 Leonardo left Milan, 
traveling through Mantua, to the court of Isabella d'Este; 
to Venice, where he consulted on architecture from 1495 to 1499; 
and in 1502 and 1503 was military engineer for Cesare Borgia. 
After his service to the Borgias, Leonardo returned to Florence. 
It was during the period between 1503 and 1506, 
while working primarily in Florence, that he had his greatest 
following and painted such classics as the "Mona Lisa."

Leonardo left Florence for Milan in 1506, 
although he returned in 1507-8 to fight for his inheritance
from his Uncle. 
In 1509 he returned to Milan and devoted much of his time 
to scientific studies, and to engineering projects such as 
channeling the course of the Adda river. 

In 1512 Leonardo left Milan again, and from 1513 to 1516 was in Rome
under the protection of Giuliano de Medici, the brother of Pope Leo X. 
Here Leonardo came into contact with Michelangelo, 
and another young rival, Raphael.

After the death of Giuliano de Medici, Leonardo accepted an invitation
from French friends and moved to the castle of Cloux near Amboise, 
where he stayed with his faithful pupil Melzi until the end of his life.
Leonardo died on May 2, 1519
and was buried in the cloister of San Fiorentino in Amboise.

Leonardo was really the king of Chromosomal Artists.
