When da Vinci was in Milan in 1495 he was specifically ordered by the Duke of Milan to paint one of his most famous paintings, The Last Supper, for the convent Santa Maria delle Grazie

Da Vinci did not paint in fresco, which was a common way for painting on walls. Instead, he painted with oil-based paint

The painting represents the very dramatic moment when Jesus says one of the apostles will betray him and Da Vinci portrays the emotion of each person

From a young age, Leonardo was gifted in arts

At 15, his father set him up to be an apprentice for an artist named Andrea del Verrocchio

While working for him, Leonardo learned many techniques like painting, sculpting, and technical- mechanical arts. He also would work in the workshop next door for Antonio Pollaiuolo, another artist

These workshops helped him to become a very talented artist

1472- Leonardo was accepted into the painters guild of Florence, but he decided to stay in his teacher's workshop for five more years

After that, he worked independently in Florence until 1481

His father was named Ser Piero and was a Florentine notary and landlord. His mother was named Caterina. She was a peasant woman who shortly after his birth, married an artisan

Leonardo was raised by his father and was treated as a real son-considering the fact that he was born to an unmarried couple

He received elementary education like reading, writing and mathematics

Leonardo did not start studying advanced math like geometry until he was 30

When he did pick these mathematics up he did it with great diligence
