Flight to Venice with Salaì and Pacioli
When Ludovico Sforza was overthrown by France, Leonardo fled Milan for Venice with his assistant Salaì and his friend the mathematician Luca Pacioli. There he worked as a military architect and engineer, devising ways to defend the city from naval attack.
1500
Back in Florence: a workshop with the Servites
In Florence Leonardo and his household were guests of the Servite monks at Santissima Annunziata, who gave him a workshop. According to Vasari, the cartoon of the Virgin and Child with Saint Anne and Saint John the Baptist he made there won such admiration that people flocked to see it “as if they were going to a solemn festival”.
1502
In the service of Cesare Borgia
In Cesena Leonardo entered the service of Cesare Borgia, son of Pope Alexander VI, travelling throughout Italy with him. To win his patronage he drew a town plan of Imola, after which Borgia made him his chief military engineer and architect.
