Join us for an exclusive two-day member preview of “DaVinci The Exhibition,” a limited-time experience at Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation.
“DaVinci The Exhibition” is a detailed exploration of the life and work of the ultimate Renaissance man. Step into the world of Leonardo da Vinci through full-scale inventions, intricate art studies and stunning displays set against the backdrop of the Italian countryside. This limited-time exhibition brings to life da Vinci’s discoveries in art, engineering, science, flight and more to celebrate and study one of history’s most brilliant minds.
Each invention in this exhibition was handcrafted by skilled artisans following da Vinci’s original two-dimensional drawings and modern translations of his Codices — comprehensive collections containing nearly all of his sketches, notes and ideas.
