Painter, mathematician, engineer, sculptor, anatomist, architect, philosopher,... Leonardo da Vinci is one of the greatest geniuses of his time. He revolutionised many disciplines, made exceptional discoveries and changed our understanding of the world!Born in 1452 in Vinci, near Florence, Italy, and died in 1519 (at the age of 67) in Amboise, France, da Vinci devoted his entire life to research and the arts thanks to renowned patrons such as Laurent de Medici, Ludovico Sforza and François I.Among the many disciplines practised by Leonardo da Vinci, he often excelled and left behind him works and discoveries that are still among the most important. In painting, we owe him the Mona Lisa, The Last Supper and The Lady of the Ermine; in engineering, his numerous notebooks representing inventions and mechanisms; in philosophy, his theories on morals and ethics; in anatomy, his sketches of the human body.In this POP figurine by Leonardo da Vinci, Funko pays tribute to the genius of the renaissance when he is already somewhat old. We recognize the old man with the long white beard and the rather modest attire: a long coat, a brown scarf, sandals on his feet and a cap on his head.If Leonardo da Vinci is particularly famous among the general public for his paintings, Funko has chosen to pay tribute to other disciplines practiced by da Vinci. For example, he holds sculpting knives in his left hand and many leaves in his right hand, which remind us of his work as an engineer and architect.Leonardo da Vinci's POP is a great success for all those who admire the genius of this man and collect the "greats" who marked their time and left a mark on the world!
