Speaking of which, they have a fascinating floor in the Uffizi in Firenze dedicated to DaVinci.

Not just pictures and art, but computer generated displays of how DaVinci used math principles to create various things. A huge statute of a bronze horse for example.

My wife took hours to get through the other floors of the "Office". I was struck by the displays concerning math and sure enough she flew through.

Oddly it would appear that art history buffs generally do not see the value in math.
