I didn't finish writing it today, and I will replace it tomorrow morning, and I will give away a thousand words, sorry. ———— Da; Vinci's kitchen design and kitchen invention in 1482, 30-year-old Leonardo?

Leonardo da Vinci came to Milan from Florence to serve at the court of Devico Sphocha on the Grand Highway of Milan.

There, in addition to the creation of the famous painting The Last Supper, da Vinci worked as a musician, designer of military machines and defense systems, and also worked as a producer, making examples of the game at court feasts

Wonders like the Feast of Paradise. He was even responsible for the renovation of the Sfcha family castle, most likely the inner chambers of the Duchess Beatrice.

So, Leonardo da Vinci in Milan was working on The Last Supper and overseeing the renovation of the Duke's castle, as well as some other design work – probably for Mariolo, a prominent minister of the Milanese court?

Giscati (Mariolode?) Guiscardi) designed residences. In the Codex Atlanticus, Da?

Finch came up with his own philosophy on the design of the kitchen: the large chamber for servants to live in should be kept away from the kitchen, so that the master would not hear their noisy voices.

There should be a place in the kitchen where pewter utensils can be easily washed, so that servants will no longer have to move them around the room...... For greater convenience, pantry, firewood, kitchen, chicken coop and servant's room should be adjacent to each other.

Gardens, stables and manure piles should also be close to each other...... Dishes can be passed out of the kitchen through wide, low windows, or with tables with hinges...... It's a good idea to have the kitchen window open directly facing the storage room, so that you can easily carry firewood.

Unfortunately, da Vinci's sketches of the kitchen design are nowhere to be found, but we can find information about his favorite foods and the foods he often bought from other passages of the Notes – see more on them earlier in this chapter.

As an outstanding inventor, Leonardo da Vinci has always been committed to labor-saving research, and he never tires of it.

Several of the sketches in Codex Atlantic depict two types of forklifts he invented—machines used to help cooks save themselves the trouble of constantly turning forks when roasting meat.

One uses a descending counterweight, which is held on a rope to a cylinder. When the weight sinks, the counterweight pulls the cylinder to rotate, which drives the gearing connected to the fork to rotate – and the fork turns.

However, the device also requires the chefs to turn the cylinder when the counterweight hits the ground to ensure that the counterweight is raised again.

Another type of automatic rotary forklift has a more sophisticated design because it uses the energy of hot air as kinetic energy.

This machine was the first airscrew compressor ever recorded.

In his book The Unknown Leonardo, Bern Dibner wrote: "Like an ingenious family inventor, he applies his discoveries to the actual operation of the kitchen...... In order to free the hands of the chefs. "The hot air rising from the flue causes the turbine blades to turn, and the baking fork with the gearing on the fire turns.

"The speed at which the roast turns can be controlled by the size of the fire," adds da Vinci. Similar devices did appear in Renaissance kitchens.

Italian food experts Cabbatti and Montanari explain: "There is a more advanced skewer with a fan on it that spins when the heat from the fire comes out. The movement of the fan causes the cylindrical gears to turn, which in turn drives the jagged wheel that is connected to the barbecue bar. Seeing this description, we can easily think that the invention of this rotary forklift was received?

Vinci was inspired, but the truth is difficult to know, because we can't be sure whether da Vinci ever showed the design in his notes to anyone else.

Leonardo da Vinci was always very secretive about his notes, and they were not published during the Renaissance.

What we can know for sure is what the main results of the semi-automatic rotary forklift after the upgrade. In Scappy's Opera there is an illustration of a device of his own design, which is shaped like a large bell by a large drum wheel at the bottom.

Untie the chain and the runner and gear begin to turn, which in turn drives the three barbecue forks that hold the roast meat on the skewers.

Because of the distance from the stove, each barbecue fork rotates at a different speed, so that when chefs need to cook different meats at the same time, there is more leeway.

In the illustration, the top fork is skewered with a leg of lamb (or veal leg) that takes a long time to roast, while the bottom fork is skewered with sausages that are easy to age and small birds.

In the following centuries, such rotary forklifts were commonly used in Europe, and some of these samples have survived to this day and are still functioning today, except that an engine is required to maintain and tune them.

Leonardo da Vinci also experimented with controlling the fire in order to make better use of it, and the result of this practice is considered by some scholars to be the first practical combination of outdoor grills in history.

The bottom of the combination is used for firewood, and there is an opening at the top of the set, which, in addition to being able to add firewood, is also a vent that allows air to enter to ensure that the flame burns.

The food that needs to be grilled is placed on the grate at the top of the grill combination. The design is strikingly similar to the outdoor barbecue combinations that people make today.

But like most of Leonardo da Vinci's inventions, we can't be sure that these devices were actually assembled.

Da Vinci was always striving for perfection in his inventions. In the words of Bourne Dybner: "He doesn't settle for a single operation concept all the time, and soon after the design is completed, he replaces some or a group of components on the machine to try to accomplish the same operating task." "Can you talk to Da?

Fincher's kitchen inventions are comparable to those he includes

Other inventions including "tank". This one

The "tank" resembles a UFO, can roll forward, and has a gun shaft sticking outward. Other inventions include giant automatic crossbows, large grenade launchers, flying machines, submersibles, and some more common machines such as automatic looms.

Da Vinci's biographer Michael White commented: Da Vinci has always been keen on the concept of automation, which is his most prominent point in the design of military machinery, and it can be seen from his many ideas and designs that this enthusiasm has almost become an inseparable obsession and obsession.

When we look back at the realities of da Vinci's time, his quest is all the more amazing.

You know, in those days, the fastest speed that people could reach was by horse, the most advanced means of transportation was horse-drawn carriages, and besides, even the invention of the first steam engine would have to wait three centuries.

Leonardo da Vinci also invented a lock that allowed the canal to navigate, and the controversy over this invention escalated over time.

Giovanni Anbrogio Mazenta (1565-1635), a clergyman from Milan, had thirteen pages on hand?

Vinci's manuscripts, and his memoirs, recorded many of da Vinci's technical achievements, although most later scholars agree that these designs were never actually realized.

In his treatise The Elements of the Machine, Ladislao Reti observes: "The information contained in it is very important because it is based on a widely circulated traditional view of whether da Vinci's ideas were actually put into use, which was still very prevalent at the time. Mazzanta also wrote: "The machines and gates invented by Leonardo da Vinci made the waterway to Lake Lombardy open and navigable. He also points out that "many of the writings on [da Vinci] mentioned the equipment used in the Milan area, such as weirs, locks, locks, etc., are in fact the inventions of da Vinci himself." Are the above ones just based on Da?

What about an untrue exaggeration formed by Vinci's enormous reputation for inventions, and what do they have to do with food?

This one...... As with so many other things about Leonardo da Vinci, we don't have a definitive answer.

But the legend continues. In his 1971 book The Food of Italy, Vavali Rout wrote: "Leonardo da Vinci's sluice gates made navigation on the Poriver a reality and broadened the scope of water transport, allowing Milanese to witness boatloads of cream, butter, mascarpone, honey, vegetables and fruits brought into their homeland." "Fleeing Milan we already know when in Milan, Da?

Finch was constantly busy with many projects going on at the same time, and he never stopped working even at banquets.

Giovanni Paolo Lomazzo, a former painter and writer, told the following story about Da?

Vinci's anecdote: The storyteller was Leonardo da Vinci's servants. Saying that once he wanted to draw some laughing peasants (but in reality he only sketched them instead of coloring them), he found some subjects he thought would be suitable, and quickly became acquainted with them.

Then da Vinci, with the help of some friends, threw a party for them. At the party, he sat across from his peasant friends and told them the craziest and most ridiculous things in the world, trying to make them laugh.

After the peasants were amused, he quietly observed their laughing expressions and movements, as well as their reactions to his absurd story, and engraved them in his mind.

After the peasants left, he returned to his room, where he created a wonderful painting - anyone who saw it couldn't help but laugh as if he had been there?

At Finch's party, sit across from him and listen to him tell those unbelievable stories. So we can speculate that Da?

Some of the fine wines on Fincher's shopping list were probably used to entertain guests at this party. The portraits mentioned by Lomazzo are called Da?

Finch's

"Strange talk," or in Leonardo da Vinci's own words

"It's funny, it's absurd, but it's actually sympathetic." In the same period, that is, in the early nineties of the fifteenth century, up to?

Vinci is completing a bronze equestrian sculpture cast in honor of Ludwico's father. In November 1493, at the wedding banquet of Ludvico's niece Bianca and Maximilian of the Habsburgs, Holy Roman Emperor, in order to please the people of Milan, Da?

Finch showed them a clay model of a bronze horse statue made for the archduke's father. In response, Vasari wrote: "Anyone who sees the clay model horse made by Da Vinci cannot help but marvel at the fact that they have never seen such a delicate and magnificent work of art as this sculpture." "For the details of casting this bronze horse, Da?

Finch made many extremely detailed notes, but unfortunately, the casting was never completed. In 1494, fearing a possible invasion from France, the apprehensive Grand Duke Ludwico sent several tons of bronze to his father-in-law, Ercole?

Ercoled? Este, and the bronze that was supposed to be used to cast the equestrian statue turned into cannons.

The bronzes were probably returned to the Duke of Esther as part of the arrears, as Esther was Ludwico's creditor - the loan between them amounted to three thousand daccats.

Da Vinci's biographer, Nicole, recounted the transfer of the bronze: "It was undoubtedly a great blow to da Vinci and his studio".

Finch himself merely understated that "I don't want to say anything about horses, because I know our time." "Indeed, apparently Da?

Vinci was well aware of the situation and soon began another of his projects—painting a fresco for the Grand Duke, which was located in a Dominican convent

The Last Supper on the wall of the dining room of Santa Mariadelle Grazie.

In painting this work, Leonardo da Vinci faced a very interesting challenge. Unlike the tradition of painting frescoes at the time, Da?

Finch uses an oil tempera mixture that resembles fresco paint. When Jesus said:

"Most assuredly, verily, I say unto you, one of you is about to betray me," how did the disciples react, and how should they behave at the table?

In Notes, da Vinci writes about how he intends to create these expressions: one of the disciples, who is drinking, turns his head towards Jesus with a glass, stunned.

The other turned his head as well, and the dagger in his hand knocked over the wine glass on the table...... Another leaned forward to stare at Jesus, covering his eyes with his hands in astonishment.

In the painting, da Vinci's image of Judas also knocks over a salt cup. Some of the disciples depicted in the painting are based on real courtiers and townspeople of the Milanese court.

The composition of The Last Supper is different from what previous painters did. Before him

The paintings on the theme of the Last Supper all line the figures in a linear circle around the dining table.

Vinci uses a wavy perspective method, as Nichole observes: "The disciples are divided into four groups of three, and the sudden and great crisis of the wavy crowd makes the picture show a strong tension – it seems that da Vinci found this dramatic moment that belongs to him......
