Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo stands at the nexus of art and science in San Martino’s fractured court. The Doctor’s deliberate omission—Leonardo will not miss this gathering—marks him as a figure of shared intellectual gravity rather than court politics. His presence alone acts as a bridge between revolutionary inquiry and established authority, a rare alignment in a world where superstition still dictates alliance. Though never seen in action here, his reputation precedes him: a man of vision whose work transcends disciplines, sought by both reformers and those who wield power to understand the world through different lenses.
