16th century North Italian Renaissance genius Leonardo was and is extremely famous, yet aspects of his life were not known. Modern research deduces more from his work, especially the manuscript thousand pages of sharp observations, even his fingerprints. He challenged all taboos and was uniquely polyvalent in his intellectual and creative talents. Furthermore it sketches the context of his birthplace, the village of Vinci he was named after, being the son of a farm daughter and a notary in Milan who couldn't recognize him out of wedlock. He probably had a homosexual relationship -potentially a capital crime- with one or more of his liv-in students, allegedly all attractive adolescents.
