Information about the work:

“... as Tuscans, we have given great importance to Leonardo’s presence in Lombardy, emphasising the naturalistic aspects and creating a scene that offers food for thought on art and nature. Leonardo's two works come alive, pose for him, become muses, and integrate into the landscape. The work has a Renaissance setting and maintains the fresco's tones and colours.”

Marco Lami and Claudia Vichi coordinate the work.

Technique used:

The centre's guests make the mosaic made from ceramic tesserae in a process that involves painting and firing them; finally, they are arranged on a table or a net following the design of the work.
