    Amazing drawings of Platonic Solids by Leonardo Da Vinci circa 1509. Da Vinci removed the sides in order to reveal the complete structure of the polyhedrons. The vertices and edges illustrate the artist’s graphic genius.pic.twitter.com/p9HgUX0iYH

        These are very special to physics, chemistry, and biology. One example showing this is Johann Kepler’s Mysterium Cosmographicum which relates these geometries to the orbits of the planets within our star systempic.twitter.com/OS03Ts5qi7

        I designed and printed T-shirts a couple of years ago incorporating some of those drawings. I still have several in stock: https://mathartfun.com/PolyhedraShirts.html …pic.twitter.com/PzkLiRFx5a

        Amazing, is the fullerene shape a kind of Platonic solid? #fullerene #maths #geometry

        Nope, a requirement for being a platonic solid is to have all faces be the same regular polygon. A fullerene has hexagons and pentagons

        For those interested, this is from "De Divina Proportione" by Luca Pacioli - in collaboration with Da Vinci (1509)

        This is from the Libellus of Luca Pacioli? Leonardo may have done those drawings, but I'm pretty sure there's no explicit attribution. And the book is a translation of a work done 30 years earlier by Piero della Francesca (also uncredited). But I agree they're gorgeous.
