| Summary | "Leonardo da Vinci: A Psychosexual Study of an Infantile Reminiscence" by Sigmund Freud is a psychoanalytic examination of the famed Renaissance artist, written in the early 20th century. The work delves into the complexity of Leonardo's character, including his artistic genius, scientific inquiries, and intriguing sexuality. Freud attempts to unravel the psychological nuances of Leonardo's life by exploring his childhood memories and later suggesting that his experiences influenced the nature of his artwork and ideas. The opening of the text outlines Leonardo's multifaceted genius and the paradox of his artistic legacy being intertwined with his scientific pursuits. Freud reflects on Leonardo's tumultuous life—from his illegitimate birth and relationship with his mother to his colorful yet complex interactions with beauty and violence. Freud introduces a curious childhood memory about a vulture, which he interprets psychoanalytically as profoundly symbolic, hinting at themes of nourishment, sexuality, and the absence of a paternal figure. The narrative sets the stage for a deeper exploration into Leonardo's psychological makeup, offering insights into the interplay between his personal experiences and his creative output.
