LEONARDO DA VINCI: THE MAN WHO KNEW NO LIMITS

Engineer and sculptor, physicist and caricaturist, astronomer and mathematician—yet Leonardo da Vinci is remembered above all as an artist and inventor.

Often called the ultimate Renaissance man, Leonardo's extraordinary range of talents and endless curiosity continue to fascinate the world. His notebooks and mysterious codices reveal the mind of a man centuries ahead of his time.

During the lecture you'll discover:

How Leonardo mastered so many different disciplines—and which ones mattered most to him.
Which popular myths about da Vinci are still widely believed, and which lesser-known facts deserve more attention.
How Leonardo achieved worldwide fame, and why the Mona Lisa became the most famous painting in history.
When luck played a role in his life—and why we call him a genius for much more than his versatility.

The lecture will be presented by Pasha Rost — painter, illustrator, and graduate of the Florence Academy of Arts, Faculty of Academic Painting.

Tbilisi, Georgia

Tbilisi is the capital and the largest city of Georgia, lying on the banks of the Kura River with a population of around 1.2 million people. Tbilisi was founded in the fifth century AD by Vakhtang I of Iberia, and since then has served as the capital of various Georgian kingdoms and republics. Because of its location at the crossroads between Europe and Asia, and its proximity to the lucrative Silk Road, throughout history, Tbilisi has been a point of contention among various global powers. To this day, the city's location ensures its position as an important transit route for energy and trade projects. Tbilisi's history is reflected in its architecture, which is a mix of medieval, neoclassical, Beaux Arts, Art Nouveau, Stalinist, and Modern structures. Historically, Tbilisi has been home to people of multiple cultural, ethnic, and religious backgrounds, though its population is overwhelmingly Eastern Orthodox Christian.
