Namuhla singuye isetshenziselwe lokho kubukwa kwesathelayithi kwemephus, singakushaya indiva ukuthi vele ngo-1502 kwakhiwa ibalazwe lokuqala lesathelayithi ledolobha lase-Italy. Futhi indodana elahlekile eyayiyidalile yayingengaphansi noma ngaphansi kukaLeonardo da Vinci omkhulu.
Ungqondongqondo ngesikhathi sakhe owayephambili kunayeubuchwepheshe obusivumela namuhla ukuthatha izithombe ukubuka kwesathelayithi. Okuhle kunakho konke ukuthi, ingqondo ekhazimulayo yomculi wase-Italiya wakwazi ukuhlela yedwa ukuthi idolobha lase-Imola lalizobonakala kanjani esibhakabhakeni.
Futhi noma ngabe sibeka imephu yakhe edwetshwe ngu-da Vinci ekubukeni kwesathelayithi kusuka edolobheni elifanayo, singaqonda ubuhlakani nobuciko obusemqondweni womculi wase-Italy osebenza ngezindlela eziningi. Kwakungu-1502 lapho ethola i-oda lomunye wabakwaBorgia ngenkathi efakwa edolobheni.
Omunye wemisebenzi yakho kwakuzosiza uBorgia ukuba azi insimu yedolobha. Futhi into eyamangaza ukuthi uLeonardo waziqhelelanisa namabalazwe ayedalwe ngalezo zikhathi lapho okwakudala "okujwayelekile" kwakwenziwa ngombono futhi okuvimba umbono wezakhiwo ezizungezile.
Amamephu abukekayo ahlaba umxhwele, kepha ayengenawo umumo nesilinganiso salabo abanokubuka kwesethelayithi esinakho namuhla nokuthi uLeonardo waklama ngokukhazimulayo. KwakunguVitruvius, unjiniyela waseRoma, yilowo okhuthaze uLeonard ukuba enze imephu yezithombe. Yimephu esisiza ukuba sazi amabanga, ukwakheka, amajika nezinye izikhala zentshisekelo ukucacisa indawo.
ULeonardo uzosebenzisa ikhampasi ukuqondisa idolobha nakuzo zonke izindonga, ikakhulukazi i-engeli efanayo futhi ngaleyo ndlela bakwazi ukwenza kabusha imephu yesathelayithi yedolobha lase-Imola. Sikushiya nezintsha Imidwebo kaLeonardo ezavela muva nje.
