Leonardo, hosts a selection of artworks by Italian artists contemporary to Leonardo da Vinci, next to the Codex on the flight of the birds; nine autograph drawings by the artist from Vinci accompany the
famous Self-portrait.
The second room presents illuminated manuscripts, incunabula, books from 1500s, precious ancient geographical maps, drawings and engravings accompanied by a rich didactic panel, to illustrate the characters and the main historical events that occurred during Leonardo’s life.
