Leonardo da Vinci and the Mona Lisa

Season 1 Episode 2 | 8m 20s

Toward the end of his life, Leonardo da Vinci finally finds the perfect patron – the King of France – and leaves leaving Italy for the first time. He stages spectacles, teaches, and continues to draw since painting becomes difficult. When giving a tour of his studio, Leonardo proudly shows his manuscripts and several unfinished paintings, including the culmination of all his work: The Mona Lisa.

Corporate funding for LEONARDO da VINCI was provided by Bank of America. Major funding was provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and by The Better Angels Society and by its individual members The Paul and Sandra Montrone Family; Stephen A. Schwarzman; Diane and Hal Brierley; Carol and Ned Spieker; Michael and Sandy Collins; Mario J.

Sloan Foundation; and the Robert and Mercedes Eichholz Foundation.
