Leonardo da Vinci designed various machines capable of performing various actions: robots that resembled humans and animals, contraptions and flying automatons, vehicles with sophisticated mechanisms.
The 6 magnificent pop-ups in this book recreate some of these marvellous inventions in 3D - the flying machine, the spring-loaded clock, the armed tank, the robot knight, the flying robot, and another mechanical marvel - the significance of which is revealed thanks to David Hawcock's complex paper engineering, the master's original illustrations, and the precise texts that accompany them.
Some of the most important and visionary creations of the great Italian genius come to life in these pages, which are packed with the artist's sketches and notes. Leonardo's own words help the reader understand these futuristic inventions and explore the mysteries of the fascinating world of science.
