There is a tendency to think that such geniuses only happened once ever, but there are probably geniuses like him alive nowadays too. People tend to value old art more than art made at current times.
hahaha, Sure there must be a few people now who could have the potential.... but unless they do it, they are nobody! And to do it at the same level as Leonardo, it takes a very long time! And a very large Oeuvre. So, NO! It is unlikely that we have an artist amidst us who can match Leonardo Da Vinci.
@@Johan-bb4sy Hey man. I don’t think you truly grasp the sheer scale of Da Vinci’s body of work and the level of expertise he possessed in multiple domains in a form or manner that was beyond his time. Van Gogh is brilliant yet Leonardo da Vinci is considered the most brilliant man ever documented, and for good reason.
You underestimate the brilliance of the man, all that he invented, designed, created... and painted.... especially considering the time he lived in the knowledge that was available to him. You could easily search for his match for 4.5 billion years and not find it.
Da Vinci is the greatest example of what an intelligent, sufficiently curious, and intellectually active person can accomplish when left to their own devices, without needless intervention and distractingly tedious instruction. Another good example is Ramanujan.
One of the most interesting things about him was that if he took a fancy to some face in the streets, he'd follow that person for hours at a distance just so he could study his face carefully, then he would come home, imagine that person's face accurately in his mind and then proceed to draw him...What an amazing super genius the guy was! Absolutely once in a lifetime...
In the contemporary word we have forgotten what it means to truly learn and know something, no one cares about the learning itself but the product of it, the system of education we set up is the reason for it. It is absolutely despicable, in the midst of all of this, how many geniuses have been crushed off their dreams and capabilities.
Your channel and most of the videos are so amazing that it is fantastic to watch and learn more and more about geniuses of human history that we owe so much for our technology and relatively comfortable lifes. Thank you so much!
The same person in today's age would struggle to get even ten likes on instagram. Because now we have superficial standards. Contextually, in his age and time, it was a huge achievement to have acquired the level of knowledge and to keep is neck from gallows.
Well, I’ve always been scratching my head about luxrul obsession with school bags and their practicality, but this video is adorable!! Congratulations.
Excellent video but Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future.., I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life!!
May I ask you to at least consider doing a video on the life of Rembrandt? I read a book a long long time ago and found it fascinating; his paintings are the most lifelike of all the masters. It is like looking at a photograph. Thanks this video.
well, he was a scientist artist and futurist at his core, so yh why wouldn't he hate the use of a tool that's based solely for profit. Its a bit more complicated than that, I think he'd say the same about automative technology, but again it all comes down to how you use it, rather than what its being used as a mass tool for. Profit and art and innovation go hand in hand, but sometimes certain negative aspects of media take over. I do genuinely think, TikTok, insta and Snapchat before it, has become that continuation of what early RUclips was, the chance to go Viral, chance for that 15 minutes of fame, and how that in itself has become a commodity now.
I enjoyed the video and learned a few things about da Vinci that I didn't know. I think it would be even better if you slowed everything down 15 to 20%. I felt that while I was absorbing an illustration or topic the video had moved on to the next one too fast for me to really appreciate each idea. I tried watching with the video settings speed at 75% (the next slower setting) and it was better.
You should include his name in the title or thumbnail. It's way to generic now, and most people won't recognize his likeness. Whilst his name might spark curiosity. This video clearly deserves more views.
His curious mind needed to know the how's and why's. Of life and forces around us. Few have the ability to transfer ideas and emotion to the paintings , scupltures & inventions. Freezing moments in time before Kodak moments were a thing. Seeing what a slab of marble has hidden inside. Working with abacus is worthwhile for bankers, mathematical precision is needed for all the lines to make sense in the end.
I saw the Mona Lisa at the Louvre many years ago. At the time, it was on a wall full of Da Vinci paintings. I was bemused to notice that the famous eyes of the Mona Lisa that seem to follow you were replicated on each of his other paintings. (Or so it seemed to me anyway.) I had previously understood that ONLY the Mona Lisa had the famous eyes.
To me, one person exceeds da Vinci in terms of multi-disciplinary genius and societal impact... Dr. Jose Rizal. Check this guy out -- unbelievably talented and inspirational and a story book life lived -- History-changing world-class novelist, prolific poet, Opthalmologist, Artist (sculpture and painter), Naturalist (discoverer of many species), Essayist, Polyglot (10+ languages fluently), Educator, National Hero (martyr by firing squad). He was never a politician or a military man, yet he is undeniably the most revered Filipino hero. Sir Isaac Newton would also be in the conversation in terms of talent (Mathematician, Physicist, Religious Philosopher, Politician).
" Leonardo began many things but never finished any of them, since it appeared to him that the hand was not able to attain the perfection of art in executing the things which he conceived; seeing that he imagined difficulties so subtle and marvelous, that they could never be expressed by the hands, be they ever so skillful. And so many things were his caprices, that philosophizing of natural things; he gave himself to understanding the properties of herbs; going on and observing the motions of the heavens, the course of the moon and the going forth of the sun." Vasari This is a superficial People magazine, tabloid, made for prime time portrait that captured the popular fantasy about the DaVinci myth, very little of the reality of the man. No mention that his mother was a very young peasant girl his farther impregnated and abandoned until he realized that his son was a genius, nor was there any real mention of Lorenzo the Magnificent as Lorenzo was one of the most important figures of the Italian Renaissance and possibly the central figure . Lorenzo was absolutely critical to introducing Leonardo to the intelligentsia of Renaissance Italy. Lorenzo's palace was an enclave of the arts and sciences, more like a museum or the Library of Alexandria where he invited the great6est minds of his time, the greatest intellects, artists, philosophers and scientists to gather for discussion to exchange ideas and could possibly be considered the epicenter of the Renaissance. Leonardo met Michelangelo at Lorenzo's palace, but Leonardo was a petty, jealous little man in some ways who dismissed Michelangelo because he could not tolerate the competition. When I was a child, Leonardo was my childhood idol and my fantasies about him served as my role model. I believed that Leonardo was the greatest figure of the Renaissance who stood alone as a titan among men, until I later realized that there was a much larger context. While my admiration for Leonardo has not diminished in the least as the myriad and scope of his genius cannot be understated, I have gained the distance of a wider perspective of his place and purpose in and of the High Italian Renaissance and my fantasies have come down to earth and are now grounded in reality. I arrived at the realization that Leonardo was the consummate theorist, while Michelangelo was the one who actually got things done, that his genius was every bit Leonardo's equal, but his ability to "play the game" of politics and patrons with the Vatican and his brilliance as a diplomat, organizer, engineer and contractor who had the to personally select the workers, immense management skills to organize and delegate responsibilities for large crews of workers for the work on St. Peters, which was a massive undertaking. These were all skills Leonardo lacked because Leonardo lived in his head and was a bit of a loss when it came to navigating the pits and traps of society and negotiating practical opportunities. While Leonardo was a dreamer, Michelangelo was more of a pragmatist who was renown, not only for his genius as a sculptor and engineer, but also for his reliability, which is why the giant piece of Carerra marble, one of the largest pieces of flawless marble quarried, originally awarded to Leonardo, was given to Michelangelo which stands today as the Statue of David.
Nice video! I've always loved to make lists and top 10s. One of those that I've spent most time thinking about, is who is the smartest person ever. My number 1 criteria has always been depth of thought. This way, my choice of the smartest person ever is Georg Cantor, who spent all his life thinking about infinities and their properties. However, recently I've considered another factor. In conversations about AI intelligence, people always say that AI is good in a narrow particular domains thus far, but it's not as good at being generally intelligent. So, according to that, breath of thought should be also an important factor. Than I thought who has been the human being, who was very good at the highest number of different fields. And the name that comes upfront is Leonardo da Vinci - the classic polymath. Without a doubt, his mental abilities have been extraordinary and among the best ever. Of course, I think there have been at least 10 times, and probably many more, very intelligent humans that never became famous, than those who did become. However, I still give some precedence to the depth of thought as a factor of intelligence, so I stick with Cantor, of those that are well known. Other honorable mentions are: Archimedes, Democritus, Plato, Siddhartha Gautama, Newton, Descartes, Einstein, Godel, Galois, Ramanujan, Penrose, Tegmark, Wolfram. "It takes a wise man to recognize a wise man." - Xenophanes.
I hate the use of ”most ever.” It’s like the most beautiful person awards, when there are always undiscovered natural beauties that leave you speechless. Let’s just celebrate his works without comparing him to people we’ve never known.
Fun fact: the batman comic design came from leonardo da vinci drawing of a parachute/wings prototype. U can google it to see how it looks like batman coat lol
People only remember what's been documented and recollected often. No one cares about people who are incredibly talented and hardworking but never document their work for others to see.
A genius as a painter , with great interest in biological sciences and other technologies which is admirable.Certainly not a Scientific genius in anyway comparable Kepler , Galileo Newton Leibniz and literally thousands of others and I have not even mentioned a single pure mathematician whose abstractions are the foundation of our scientific knowledge.A great man and singular intellect nonetheless.
Leonardo was married. I have replaced Leonardo as world's greatest genius, I think. I, too, am self-taught (like my character in Good Will Hunting--my title). I figured out how to stop hurricanes and how to cure a hundred incurable diseases, conditions (like criminality/delinquency). I proposed the HOPE Scholarships, Don't Ask Don't Tell, and The Deadbeat Dad Laws. My name is on Elliot's doodles in E.T., top left. I created Star Wars (Darth Vader, The Jedi, The Force, The Training), The Simpsons, Shrek, Pirates of the Caribbean123, I adapted Shawshank Redemption, wrote the poems for Dead Poets Society and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I have mentored George W. Bush, Bubba Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Ann Richards, Stephen Spielberg, Robert Reich, David Kendall, Strobe Talbot, Ron Kirk, and Paul Sanberg.
0:09 You don’t know if a fruit is rotten or sweet until you tasted the insides of the person. Same principle for business and in life. It’s only through insiders in the organisation would you be able to understand how the company truly operates.
Leonardo da Vinci was truly a genius! It's amazing how his curiosity and understanding of anatomy shaped art in ways we still admire today. What do you think makes the Mona Lisa so captivating? Is it her smile, or something deeper? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
I’m not sure how anyone compares to Newton for the sheer volume of foundational mathematics and theory to get the ball rolling. Yes it’s all collaborative but without Newton can we be sure we’d have anything close to what we have?
Just a point in fact, the Mona Lisa only became famous when it was stolen in 1911, before that hardly anyone really knew the painting. You can thank the news media and the thief for making it so well known today.
No I dont think the news media or the thief would make it well known! they may have drawn attention to it, but it is not in the museum as an exhibit of a stolen painting! lol
It became famous to the general pubblic, who had lacking knoledge of art. But between elites it was famous, there are 4 ancient copy surviving till today. Plus why that italian guy tried to stole the Mona Lisa and not other italian paintings in the Louvre? Because it was already famous. The fact it became very famous among the general pubblic in that occasion doesn't mean it wasn't famous before, but simply that the general public didn't know much art and that was common before the widespread use of photos.
Meanwhile in a place known as ancient bharath, an unknown common worker was able to carve a granite stone with atmost precision and create art with it! which is harder ?
2:47 The greed of Judas was so great that he brought the bag of silver to the Last Supper without fear that the unknown source of income may reveal his act of betrayal. Same principle for embezzlement and for those with large sums of dubious wealth.

Exactly, he learnt and observed things in a way no school would ever teach him the reason for his marvelous work was that he observed everything.
Not exactly it would take a genius to do what he did not just some average human
