- The Norwegian Leonardo Bridge From the page: "Conceptually, Vebjørn Sand sees the project as a vivid meeting between the functional and esthetical worlds. It is a reminder that the technology the human race has come to consider a necessary part of daily life, was possible only by the deep faith the great geniuses of Western art and science had in the spiritual reality of the natural world. Nature now almost trivialized by the very pervasive-ness of these inventions. The bridge unites the past with the present, and expresses the greatest and the most beautiful aspect of Renaissance art and science. That is a meeting between heaven and earth, between the spiritual and the material realms. To the artist, the bridge is also a beautiful metaphor for the meeting between people, cultures and continents. It is in itself - in its reality - the harmonic expression of this meeting. Thus was born Vebjørn Sand's vision to build the bridge on every continent."

- From the page: "In 1502 Leonardo da Vinci did a simple drawing of a graceful bridge with a single span of 720-foot span (approximately 240-meters.) Da Vinci designed the bridge as part of a civil engineering project for Sultan Bajazet II of Constantinople (Istanbul.) The bridge was to span the Golden Horn, an inlet at the mouth of the Bosphorus River in what is now Turkey. The Bridge was never built."

- The Norwegian Leonardo Bridge was constructed and opened to foot and bicycle traffic on October 31, 2001. Da Vinci's vision resurrected, 500 years later!
