The true face of Leonardo? Well, maybe. Here’s something I picked up off the IHR circular, and thought might be worth posting if the advertising content on the original could be pruned. It could. So here is a four-minute presentation by Siegfried Woldhek, a newspaper illustrator with a sideline as a Third World techno do-gooder, on his research into “the true face” of Leonardo de Vinci.

One other thing I’ve found thats worth mentioning: northern women prefer northern men. Those that arent are low-qual. I mean, its true ipso facto, but the girls I met I really wish this blog would take off more, but you guys are selling I’m really enjoying reading your last few prose pieces GW. I haven’t found anybody that writes with such an august tone, it ennobles the subject matter. August is a word that almost isnt in my vocabulary but its peculiarly appropriate to the things you write. thanks for keeping with it. ad stellas per aspera! ex-potentialfroehlich 4
Posted by Guessedworker on Mon, 14 Apr 2008 00:48 | # Hey PF, Nice to have you drop by, and thanks for the links (which I have checked out - I will leave a few comments to see whether these guys follow the trail). PF, you should know that I always considered my earth-bound scribblings to suffer by comparison with your heavenward poetic arrows. What a blogger you would have been, with a little more time. The door will always be open to you. Northern lassies of class? No less than you deserve. 5

Posted by jjj on Mon, 14 Apr 2008 03:44 | # GW and PF, stop jerking off each others’ enoblements and just communicate what’s on your mind in the simplest language available. 7
Posted by jjj on Mon, 14 Apr 2008 03:50 | # : and Happy Birthday to Leonardo for tomorrow. Even tho’ your most famous work is an average portrait of an ugly woman—your other work is known to be the ‘Real Deal’. 8

Posted by Guessedworker on Mon, 14 Apr 2008 10:03 | # What work of thought is both within reach and brings benefit? Observations of life, political and personal, and maybe some portraits of people met along the way. Pushings of the envelope. Constructive criticisms of the gestures and efforts we - not just just MRers, but all of us - make in the name of our peoples ... That sort of thing. But, really, there’s no saying what a creative mind can achieve, and to try to set guidelines for it is to set limits which wouldn’t do it justice. 10

Posted by Hail on Thu, 13 Oct 2011 05:07 | # Another portrait surfaced a year after this lecture was given. This one would be a “missing link” between the age-33 portrait and the age-63 portraits discussed in the lecture.

Absolutely fascinating artistic detective work. And I think he must be correct — what an elegant piece of deduction he’s done. So, we now know what Leonardo da Vinci looked like! A very fine looking man, too — what others said about him, it turns out, was true!
