The Renaissance Man

Leonardo da Vinci, self-portrait in red chalk, circa 1512 to 1515

I belong to a group called Blog Talkers that inspires creative writing on a weekly basis. I post my answers to these questions on our family blog, but this week I could not help but think that my answer would be more appropriate here.

The question was: What historical time period would you most like to visit? Why?

And my answer can be read in the blog entry entitled, Going Back In Time. Basically my answer was a simple one in that I believe there is only one historical figure who could handle a visit from a time traveller, and that is da Vinci!

Now I'd like to toss this question at the readers of this blog.

If you could meet one historical figure, or visit a certain era, which would it be?
