Express.co.uk - Home of the Daily and Sunday Express | Express Yourself :: The DaVinci Lode: "...contemporaries didn’t quite understand how amazing they were. It’s a dense and complex body of material. It wasn’t until 1900 when the drawings were finally published and properly analysed by modern medics that people understood what Leonardo had achieved.”

Of the 150 sheets in the Royal Collection, 87 are included in the exhibition; between them they contain hundreds of drawings and hundreds of thousands of words in Leonardo’s tiny cursive mirror writing."
