Solution
Leonardo Da Vinci was a great painter, sculptor, musician, and scientist. Da Vinci received no formal education beyond basic reading, writing, and maths, but his father appreciated his artistic talent and apprenticed him at around the age of 15 to the noted sculptor and painter Andrea del Verrocchio, of Florence. For about a decade, Da Vinci refined his painting and sculpting techniques and trained in mechanical arts.
