I have to ask. At 1:29 he says that Leonardo did "about 120 male portaits". But at 2:13 he says "the musician is the only portrait of a male Leonardo painted"... This confused me.. Which is, 1 or 120? PLEASE ANSWER!
I remember reading that the "Old Man" portrait was Leonardo's father and seeing another portrait that was supposed to be Leonardo. That portrait was not shown in this video.
Did anyone notice how he got DaVinci's age wrong in the old man portrait? He states (and shows) that DaVinci was 63 in 1513, but clearly he was 61 years old, not 63.
