The curators of the exhibition managed to collect more than 160 works by Leonardo da Vinci - some were donated to the Louvre for the duration of the exhibition by Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain, as well as by Bill Gates and his wife Melinda. The permanent exhibition of the Louvre contains perhaps the most famous painting of the artist - "Mona Lisa".

The Louvre exhibition will last four months. During this time, more than half a million people are expected to visit it. The curators say they want to help visitors gain a deeper understanding of the artist's working methods. Therefore, the exhibition presents da Vinci's notes, his drawings, as well as the results of studies of his paintings, including in infrared radiation. Virtual reality technologies will help visitors to see the details of the artist's works that are invisible to the naked eye.
Recent infrared studies of some of Leonardo da Vinci's paintings have revealed several layers of images hidden behind the final painting.

In August, experts using hyperspectral imaging discovered that the image of the angel and the baby Christ in the original versions of Madonna of the Rocks was different from the final version. Macro X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy maps show that an angel embraces the baby Jesus Christ.
Leonardo da Vinci was an engineer, inventor, scientist and artist who was interested and admired the beauty of the human body, the behavior of animals and the life of plants.
He was obsessed with the idea of \u200b\u200bflight and designed an aircraft with wings that were propelled by a special mechanism. The machine invented by the artist was supposed to imitate the flight of a bird. Leonardo himself performed the calculations and made the drawings. Some of them are presented at the exhibition.

The artist also came up with new weapons, various tools, devices. In his notebooks you can find notes and sketches concerning various ideas in construction and architecture.
Image caption One of the most famous drawings by Leonardo da Vinci - "Vitruvian Man" - will be presented at the exhibition, but only for two months. The drawing was brought from the Accademia Gallery in Venice to the Louvre in Paris just before the opening of the exhibition.
In Italy, the Italia Nostra association tried to ban the export of the famous drawing, insisting that this work of the artist must constantly be in special conditions, and transportation and lighting at the exhibition could cause irreparable harm to it. However, a court in Italy decided that the "Vitruvian Man" could still be presented at an exhibition in Paris.

"It [the Vitruvian Man drawing] shows the beauty of the [human] body," says exhibition curator Vincent Deluvin.
“We hope that we can show how he [Leonardo da Vinci] was an artist, why he was so important. He used a special and unusual method of work, based on a scientific approach,” adds Deluvin.

"Mona Lisa" - perhaps the most famous work of Leonardo da Vinci - will be presented at the exhibition using virtual reality technologies. The painting itself will remain in the same place in the permanent exhibition of the Louvre, where it is located behind bullet-proof glass. This decision was made due to the fact that the throughput of the exhibition halls is several times lower than the throughput of the permanent exhibition hall.

Among them are sketches of Leda's head and arms (for the lost painting "Leda and the Swan").

Leonardo was born in the city of Vinci, Tuscany, in 1452. His interests were not limited to painting, he was also a sculptor, architect, mathematician. He spent several years before his death in May 1519 in France at the invitation of King Francis I.
This circumstance became one of the arguments in the recent dispute between Italy and France.
The exhibition, which the Louvre has been preparing for many years, came into question at the end of last year, when the Italian right-wing party "League of the North" opposed the granting of several of the artist's works to France, saying that Italy, having given the work, would be "on the sidelines of a big political event." ...
Last November, Italian Deputy Minister of Culture Lucia Borgonzoni said: "Leonardo was Italian. He just died in France. France cannot get everything."
The dispute came to an end only last week, when the Italian Administrative Court ruled that the Vitruvian Man, which is kept in a gallery in Venice in a room that maintains a constant temperature, could be brought to an exhibition in the Louvre.
At the same time, the court referred to the exceptional significance of the exhibition in the Louvre for the whole world.
"Now two wonderful Italian-French exhibitions can start their work - Leonardo in Paris and Raphael in Rome", - the Minister of Culture of Italy Dario Franceschini wrote on Twitter.
