LEONARDO DA VINCI ... VITRUVIAN MAN HI-DEF CARD
LEONARDO DA VINCI ... VITRUVIAN MAN HI-DEF CARD. Circa 1490 Italian High Renaissance drawing showing human proportions of a man fitting in a circle and a square according to writings of ancient Roman Architect Vitruvius.
Translation of upper portion: Vitruvius, the architect, says in his architectural work that the measurements of man are in nature distributed in this manner, that is 4 fingers make a palm, 4 palms make a foot, 6 palms make a cubit, 4 cubits make a man, 4 cubits make a footstep, 24 palms make a man and these measures are in his buildings. If you open your legs enough that your head is lowered by 1/14 of your height and raise your arms enough that your extended fingers touch the line of the top of your head, let you know that the center of the ends of the open limbs will be the navel, and the space between the legs will be an equilateral triangle.
Translation of lower portion: The length of the outspread arms is equal to the height of the man. From the hairline to the bottom of the chin is one-tenth of the height of the man. From below the chin to the top of the head is one-eighth of the height of the man. From above the chest to the top of the head is one-sixth of the height of the man. From above the chest to the hairline is one-seventh of the height of a man. From the chest to the head is a quarter of the height of the man. The maximum width of the shoulders contains a quarter of the man. From the elbow to the tip of the hand is a quarter of the height of a man; the distance from the elbow to the armpit is one-eighth of the height of the man; the length of the hand is one-tenth of the man. The virile member is at the half height of the man. The foot is one-seventh of the man. From below the foot to below the knee is a quarter of the man. From below the knee to the root of the member is a quarter of the man. The distances from the chin to the nose and the hairline and the eyebrows are equal to the ears and one-third of the face.

I found this fairly easy to edit and have printed. It turned out nicely and made a good way to set the theme for the party. . It was a lovely invitation. I was able to add a photo on the back.
The printing quality was excellent.

This is the second printing of my order as you can see it’s not printed as I ordered. It’s crooked and off-center. It needs to be replaced again.
