Abstract
Among the architectural and mathematical treatises that flourished during the Renaissance period, Leonardo’s codices deserve special attention. They are not didactic treatises, arranged in several books that must be read from the first page to the last, but information about the scientific research in the Renaissance flows from their pages, full of sketches and notes as from an endless font. The reader always bumps into something new or unexpected when going through the drawings, whichever codex or whatever page he is exploring.
