Happy 573rd Birthday Leonardo! Leonardo is one of my heroes for many reasons but especially for his medical and scientific illustrations. If published during his lifetime or shortly thereafter, instead of in the late 1800s, his anatomical works would have advanced medicine by a couple of centuries.
