Inside The Mind Of Leonardo The inspiring world of Leonardo da Vinci is brought to life by acclaimed BAFTA award-winning actor Peter Capaldi in a unique dramatised documentary Inside The Mind Of Leonardo is based on the artist's private journals dating from the Italian Renaissance. With more than 6,000 pages of handwritten notes and drawings, da Vinci's private journals are the most comprehensive documents that chronicle the work of the world's most renowned inventor, philosopher, painter, and genius Using this precious collection of writings and drawings to recount da Vinci's story in his own words, we re-create the mindscape and ideas of mankind's greatest polymath In a powerful haunting performance, award-winning actor Peter Capaldi portrays Leonardo and dramatically narrates passages and monologues from these journals. Capaldi captures the passion of Leonardo's ambition, his opinion of the world and his views on art and life. From the epic to the ordinary, Inside The Mind Of Leonardo explores how Leonardo experienced the world around him Following a biographical narrative, the feature captures the artist's thwarted ambitions, hurt, anger, and sexual desire as documented within his diaries, but also the mundanity of normal life: his shopping lists, health tips, and bawdy jokes
