Leonardo da Vinci, Master Draftsman
Sponsor Statement
Morgan Stanley is proud to collaborate with The Metropolitan Museum of Art in presenting Leonardo da Vinci, Master Draftsman. For five hundred years Leonardo has embodied innovation in both art and science. As this exhibition makes clear, the common element of all Leonardo's achievements was his urge to expand the boundaries of human knowledge and to create a new vision. From anatomy to mathematics, from painting to engineering, Leonardo's many varied drawings demonstrate an insatiable drive to understand, explore, and experiment.
All of us can learn from Leonardo. By pursuing our own curiosity, we can always learn new things, create new possibilities and increase our own expertise. At Morgan Stanley, this means constantly seeking to better understand our clients and finding new ways to help them achieve their financial aspirations. For us, today's intellectual curiosity is tomorrow's intellectual capital.
Leonardo inspires us with the possibilities of what one person can achieve and what the world may hold for each of us. Fueled by curiosity, we can embark on a journey to the heart of every mystery and accept and conquer every challenge. We hope everyone who sees this exhibition will discover the little bit of Leonardo that lies in each of us.
