N 2 da Vinci and Beyond :

Leonardo da Vinci said, "There are three classes of people: Those who see. Those who see when they are shown. Those who do not see." This site is dedicated to sharing the discovery of amazing hidden images and optical illusions found within ALL of Leonardo da Vinci's works of art. Special techniques such as the "Hologram Effect" are skillfully employed by the ingenious artist/inventor to hide layer upon layer of hidden images throughout All of his paintings, drawings, study sheets and sketches... Incredibly beautiful hidden images that appear suddenly right before your eyes then fade and form into another, then another astounding work of art. Learn the simple secrets to seeing an endless array of hidden images and illusions as well as a possible theory of how this secret has eluded our attention for over 500 years. Distance, angles, time and patience are all that's needed to view this hidden world of Leonado da Vinci. There are many new discoveries still to be posted as well as many more amazing discoveries found within my archives and the many different published Photo Albums listed below.

ST. ANNE

THE VIRGIN AND CHILD WITH ST. ANNE AND THE YOUNG ST. JOHN THE BAPTIST NOTE: To avoid confusion with "Virgin of the Rocks", I've used the title: ST. ANNE... for my photo album. None of the images have been altered other than by means of basic lighting, contrasting, cropped, etc., I've used a white out or black out effect to draw viewers attention to some specific images. (BY LJ.)

THE LAST SUPPER

FOURTH: #4 THE LAST SUPPER Negative, reverse image, upside down, all color removed and lighting enhanced BY LJ. It looks as though you're on the outside of the windows that appear behind "The Last Supper", in a courtyard with a well to the left... Give it time, walk away from your computer, view it from a distance...you'll see it. And this is only the beginning...

VITRUVIAN MAN

VITRUVIAN MAN: LEONARDO DA VINCI Is it so hard to visualize the spread legs forming the shape of a compass and that both sets of feet are drawn to form a right angle, yet it almost seems too simple to suggest this was intentionally done by LEONARDO to represent the MASONIC symbol of the compass and square... Then again I find it extremely interesting to speculate if indeed it was done intentionally!

VIRGIN OF THE ROCKS

da Vinci: The Art of Illusion

PROFILE OF AN OLD MAN: Leonardo da Vinci

Just in case you missed this very special illusion from my August 2007 archives, it bares repeating.

Sit back and tilt your head just slightly to the left staring intently at the corner of the old man's mouth.

Suddenly the chin of the old man appears as the large round nose of another face. See it?

The illusion of a hidden face with eyes and mouth outlined in white. There are many, many more hidden images and amazing illusions lurking within this sketch. Can you find them?

Click on the following link to see a more detailed examination of this sketch and many more hidden images I've actually outlined for you: http://www.n2davinciandbeyond.com/n_2_da_vinci_and_beyond_b/2007/10/da-vinci-art-of.html
