Language through the Arts
Leonardo the Artist and Scientist
Leonardo da Vinci was an Italian genius. He was born

in the town of Vinci on April 15, 1452.
He was an artist, sculptor, inventor, scientist,
mathematician, architect, and engineer. His interest
in science and nature had an effect on his work.
Leonardo Da Vinci is well-known around the world for
his drawings and paintings. The Mona Lisa is his most
popular piece of art. You can see it in the Louvre
Museum in Paris.
People are not sure about who the Mona Lisa is and
there are different theories; for example, that she was
the wife of a salesman, or even that some believe that
she represents the self-portrait of Leonardo as a woman.
Da Vinci kept the Mona Lisa until he died on May 2,
1519 in France.

“Falling stars”
Sometimes people see lines that move in the
sky. They call them “falling stars” or
“shooting stars”. They use a telescope to see
them because they are far away. But, they are
not stars. They are pieces of stone or iron that
fall form the sky. Most of them are very small,
and when they come to the earth, they are so
bright and hot that they burn. The big stones
that fall to the earth are called meteorites.
They look like balls of fire.

Frankenstein. She wrote about scientist who was
