This morning I went to the #BibliotecaAmbrosiana in Milan.

They have a big collection of Leonardo Da Vinci's notes, called #CodexAtlanticus, they display a few pages, switching them every few months.

I never saw a Leonardo drawing up close, it's impressive.

BTW forgot to bring a mirror with me 😅
