The exhibition presents the influence that the mathematician Luca Pacioli had on Leonardo da Vinci in the field of mathematics and painting. From the complexity in the Codes, to the perfect proportions and perspective in Leonardo's drawings to the public display of the 60 color tables of the polyhedrons that Leonardo, in 1498, has wonderfully designed for the volume "De Divina Proportione" by Luca Pacioli.
“the supraeme et legiadrissime figures of all the platonic et mathematic regular bodies et dependent, which in prospective design it is not possible to make them better,...facte et formate del prencipci oggi fra mortals Lionardo nostra da Venci.” (Luca Pacioli, “De Viribus Quantitatis”)
