As we continue touring the Da Vinci exhibition, we move into the last section of the third room. This section had a variety of inventions displayed in it. The displays included several small scaled boat models, a miniature model of a double crane, an interactive display showing how Da Vinci's self supporting bridge works, and a replica of Da Vinci's studio. all the models and the interactive display were accompanied by copies of pages from the Codex Atlanticus and illustrations that explained their design. The self supporting bridge display was very interesting and entertaining. Assembling one is a lot harder than it looks. And watching people trying was pretty funny.
Next, we headed back up stairs to the forth and final room of the Da Vinci exhibition. Room 4 had the widest range of inventions, out of all the rooms. From flying machines to a self propelled cart (kind of like the first robot), there was a lot to see in Room 4.
We're almost done with Da Vinci and the Ronald Reagan Library. The Broad and Michael Angelo are next. And, as I mentioned in a previous post, I will be posting a mix of past and current events. That means there is also a lot of photography, poetry, and calligraphy coming up. So be sure to check back for the rest of Da Vinci and a whole lot more art and creativity!
