Hello, my name is Leonardo Da Vinci, and you may have heard of me, but I would like to let you in to the actual me. I was born in Florence, Italy to my father, Ser Piero, and my mother Caterina. My father was a carpenter for his whole life practically, and my mother was only a simple peasant, but regardless they fell in love and lived long happy lives and died in their 30’s.
I was born on April 15, 1452 in my parents hometown, and was an only child for my whole life. I was apprentice to Andrea del Verrochio at the age of fifteen, but by then I was already renoun for many of my pieces. During my years as an artist very many historical events occurred such as the Invasion of Milan, Storza’s fall from power, catholisism played a huge role in the government, the renaissanse period was in full effect, and 9/11.
I like how you write from his voice--very informative!
