Leonardo da Vinci's "Vitruvian Man" is one of the world's most famous images. But what is it? Who the hell is he? Why does he have four arms and four legs? The answer probably has something to do with the room you're sitting in right now...

It's National Fentanyl Awareness Day. I want to share critical info as a pediatrician & dad. Drug overdoses now kill the equivalent to a high school classroom of teens every week across the US. About 9 in 10 are caused by fentanyl. 🧵 1/

Escaping Criticism, painted by Pere Borrell del Caso in 1874, is a perfect example of the art technique called "trompe-l'œil", an optical illusion where the painter makes a flat surface seem three-dimensional. And it will completely change the way you think of art...
