The Real<br />

da Vinci Code<br />

Between 2009 and 2015, a vast collection of Leonardo da<br />

Vinci’s writings and drawings will go on public display for the first<br />

time. Due to preservation requirements, twenty-four separate<br />

exhibitions will display 45 pages of his “Codice Atlantico” at a<br />

time and rotate every three months. Until 12 December, the<br />

Veneranda Biblioteca Ambrosiana, custodian of the genius<br />

of Leonardo, who lived in <strong>Milan</strong> for many years, will host the<br />

fifth of these exhibitions, featuring drawings dedicated to the<br />

construction of war machines. The exhibition is divided up<br />

between two venues: Ambrosiana, Piazza Pio IX, sala Federiciana<br />

(Tues-Sun 9am-7pm); Sagrestia Monumentale del Bramante,<br />

entrance from via Caradosso, 1 (Tues-Sun 8.30am-7pm). (p. 71)<br />

illustrator and portrait painter. Free admission to the show. Wed-<br />
