From the NC Art Museum website:
The Codex Leicester is a 500-year-old notebook from inventor, scientist, and artist Leonardo da Vinci. Named after the Earl of Leicester, who purchased the 72-page manuscript in 1717, it is composed of 18 sheets of paper, each folded in half and written in the artist’s famed “mirror writing.”
Together with the rough sketches and drawings accompanying them, the notes offer a glimpse into one of the greatest minds in history. The central theme of the work is water, but this quickly expands into astronomy, light and shade, and mechanics. The Codex is the only one of Leonardo’s manuscripts in North America.
