the<00:00:45.120> face<00:00:45.440> of<00:00:45.600> leonado<00:00:46.160> Da think is this the face of leonado Da think is this the face of leonado Da Vinci<00:00:46.920> or<00:00:47.079> isn't<00:00:47.600> it<00:00:48.600> let's<00:00:48.800> find Vinci or isn't it let's find Vinci or isn't it let's find out<00:00:51.079> leonado<00:00:51.640> was<00:00:51.760> a<00:00:51.920> man<00:00:52.199> that<00:00:52.359> Drew out leonado was a man that Drew out leonado was a man that Drew everything<00:00:53.320> around<00:00:53.640> him<00:00:54.359> he<00:00:54.520> drew<00:00:55.000> people everything around him he drew people everything around him he drew people Anatomy<00:00:56.559> plants<00:00:57.320> animals<00:00:58.280> Landscapes Anatomy plants animals Landscapes Anatomy plants animals Landscapes buildings<00:01:00.039> water<00:01:01.079> everything<00:01:02.079> but<00:01:02.280> no<00:01:02.840> faces buildings water everything but no faces buildings water everything but no faces I<00:01:03.960> find<00:01:04.239> that<00:01:04.439> hard<00:01:04.640> to<00:01:04.799> believe<00:01:05.560> his I find that hard to believe his I find that hard to believe his contemporaries<00:01:06.400> made<00:01:06.680> faces<00:01:07.119> like<00:01:07.240> the<00:01:07.360> ones contemporaries made faces like the ones contemporaries made faces like the ones you<00:01:07.640> see<00:01:07.920> here<00:01:08.600> anas<00:01:09.159> or you see here anas or you see here anas or 34s<00:01:10.960> uh<00:01:11.040> so<00:01:11.280> surely<00:01:11.960> a<00:01:12.200> passionate<00:01:12.640> drawer 34s uh so surely a passionate drawer 34s uh so surely a passionate drawer like<00:01:13.280> Leonardo<00:01:14.240> must<00:01:14.560> have<00:01:14.720> made like Leonardo must have made like Leonardo must have made self-portraits<00:01:15.840> from<00:01:16.040> time<00:01:16.200> to self-portraits from time to self-portraits from time to time<00:01:18.360> so<00:01:18.520> let's<00:01:18.759> try<00:01:18.920> to<00:01:19.080> find<00:01:19.320> them<00:01:19.600> I<00:01:19.720> think time so let's try to find them I think time so let's try to find them I think that<00:01:20.200> if<00:01:20.320> we<00:01:20.439> were<00:01:20.600> to<00:01:20.759> scan<00:01:21.119> all<00:01:21.280> of<00:01:21.400> his<00:01:21.640> work that if we were to scan all of his work that if we were to scan all of his work and<00:01:22.799> look<00:01:23.000> for<00:01:23.320> self-portraits<00:01:24.320> we<00:01:24.479> would and look for self-portraits we would and look for self-portraits we would find<00:01:25.040> his<00:01:25.320> face<00:01:25.640> looking<00:01:25.960> at<00:01:26.479> us<00:01:27.479> so<00:01:28.240> I<00:01:28.400> looked find his face looking at us so I looked find his face looking at us so I looked at<00:01:28.840> all<00:01:28.960> of<00:01:29.079> his<00:01:29.240> drawings<00:01:29.600> more<00:01:29.720> than<00:01:30.119> 700<00:01:31.119> and at all of his drawings more than 700 and at all of his drawings more than 700 and looked<00:01:31.600> for<00:01:32.240> male<00:01:32.680> portraits<00:01:33.399> there<00:01:33.520> are looked for male portraits there are looked for male portraits there are about<00:01:33.960> 120<00:01:34.680> you<00:01:34.799> see<00:01:35.000> them about 120 you see them about 120 you see them here<00:01:37.040> which<00:01:37.200> ones<00:01:37.399> of<00:01:37.600> these<00:01:37.920> could<00:01:38.119> be here which ones of these could be here which ones of these could be self-portraits<00:01:39.119> well<00:01:39.280> for<00:01:39.479> that<00:01:39.880> they<00:01:40.079> have self-portraits well for that they have self-portraits well for that they have to<00:01:40.399> be<00:01:40.560> done<00:01:40.920> as<00:01:41.040> we<00:01:41.240> just<00:01:41.399> saw<00:01:42.240> AAS<00:01:42.799> or<00:01:42.960> 3/ to be done as we just saw AAS or 3/ to be done as we just saw AAS or 3/ quarters<00:01:43.640> so<00:01:43.799> we<00:01:43.920> can<00:01:44.079> eliminate<00:01:44.840> all<00:01:45.000> the quarters so we can eliminate all the quarters so we can eliminate all the profiles<00:01:46.719> it<00:01:46.880> also<00:01:47.159> has<00:01:47.280> to<00:01:47.439> be<00:01:47.600> sufficiently profiles it also has to be sufficiently profiles it also has to be sufficiently detailed<00:01:49.040> so<00:01:49.240> we<00:01:49.320> can<00:01:49.479> also<00:01:49.759> eliminate<00:01:50.680> the detailed so we can also eliminate the detailed so we can also eliminate the ones<00:01:51.119> that<00:01:51.280> are<00:01:51.840> very<00:01:52.159> vague<00:01:52.880> or<00:01:53.119> very ones that are very vague
