We are more or less 7 weeks away from the end of the year
and thus from the beginning of 2019.
2019 marks 500 years after Leonardo da Vinci's death.
Museums worldwide are ready to launch (some have already launched) special initiatives to celebrate THE artist.
If you are organising or writing something Leonardo-related, please let us know! We are collecting infos to prepare a Leonardo da Vinci-NewsCorner issue. Thanks in advance!
