Renaissance Man
Leonardo da Vinci was born on this day in 1452. Until not too long ago, he was by far the most famous Leonardo around.
He was an all-around guy--probably the top of all time. Everything seems to have interested him and he was good at anything he tried. Math, anatomy, optics, really science in general. And one of the most famous images in the world is his Vitruvian Man.
Note he wrote backwards so his stuff could be read in the mirror. What a cut-up.
And then he was a great artist/sculptor. In fact, if you named the five most famous paintings ever, I think he's got two. The Mona Lisa's gotta be #1 and The Last Supper can't be too far behind. While we're at it, his Salvator Mundi sold for $450 million a few years back, a world record.
Why they all sitting on one side of the table?

They're all on one side of the table for the same reason that actors on stage always face the audience, and on television shows where people eat dinner, nobody's back is to the camera.
