If I could travel back in time, the person I would like to meet is Da Vinci. As one of the three great men of the Renaissance, Da Vinci created many marvelous things. I would like to watch him draw the drafts and paintings, because I know that all of his paintings will be worth collecting. Born in the thirteenth century, Da Vinci’s notions and ideas were considered castles in the air, but as a modern person, I can understand his creation. I have seen a book about Da Vinci named “The Lonely Genius” and felt sad for him. There was nothing wrong with him. He just had thoughts which surpassed his era. I try to imagine how lonely his life was. If I can travel back in time, I would like to be an apprentice and stay by his side. I would be willing to collect all his manuscripts carefully lest he wouldn’t find it. I would strive to find more sponsors for him, so he could concentrate on his work and leave more legends. If he wanted to take a look into the “body”, I would pluck up my courage and get one for his anatomy.

    I’m eager to know why the angels in Da Vinci’s painting are confusing; they look like neither male nor female. I would like to consult him about this, though gazing at those models might be embarrassing. When he draw the drafts of movable bridges, flying machines and diving equipment, I would ask him what theorem he followed. I could tell him that why birds can fly is because of the air bag in its body. I can tell him that steam is a usable source of energy in the future and maybe the first prototype of steamer or plane would come true in the 13th century. Maybe he can even make the “steampunk” genre into fashion when combining the gear with art. I worship him for his patience; he could spend a day observing how the water flowed! The lines on his manuscripts were as smooth as the real ones. I want to see how he drae the famous painting “Mona Lisa”. Who on earth was the model? Was it the true look of her? Or a version of his self-portrait? How did he drew the background from a bird’s viewpoint?

    There are so many question left unsolved. I wonder if I should ask him these questions. Would he show a mystic smile like Mona Lisa to me?
