Vitruvian project:

Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man is one of his most famous works of art.  'This pen and ink drawing was his exploration of the theories about human proportions set forth by ancient Roman architect Vitruvius. In his treatise De Architectura, Vitruvius wrote, "For if a man be placed flat on his back, with his hands and feet extended, and a pair of compasses centered at his navel, the fingers and toes of his two hands and feet will touch the circumference of a circle described therefrom. And just as the human body yields a circular outline, so too a square figure may be found from it."

Our project will center around the proportions of the body found by Vitruvian.  Read the article found below; research some of the background that is highlighted in blue words throughout the article.

As you discover and understand specific body parts that are in proportion to each other, keep in mind all the terminology that has been learned.
