Advances in Science & Math Leonardo is said to have painted in the church of Orsanmichele. But his skills and interests took him all over Florence. No matter where Leonardo was, he constantly searched for knowledge. He kept detailed notes and complex drawings on hundreds of subjects. Many of these drawings anticipated inventions long before their time. Most of the 4,200 pages of notes he kept were written in reverse script, or backward, so that they could only be read easily if held up to a mirror. Some historians think Leonardo did this to prevent people from stealing his ideas.
