Leon Battista Alberti’s zodiac sign is Aquarius. According to astrologers, the presence of Aries always marks the beginning of something energetic and turbulent. They are continuously looking for dynamic, speed and competition, always being the first in everything - from work to social gatherings. Thanks to its ruling planet Mars and the fact it belongs to the element of Fire (just like Leo and Sagittarius), Aries is one of the most active zodiac signs. It is in their nature to take action, sometimes before they think about it well.
Leon Battista Alberti was born in the Year of the Monkey. Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Monkey thrive on having fun. They’re energetic, upbeat, and good at listening but lack self-control. They like being active and stimulated and enjoy pleasing self before pleasing others. They’re heart-breakers, not good at long-term relationships, morals are weak. Compatible with Rat or Dragon.
Best remembered for such architectural masterpieces as the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella and the Palazzo Rucellai (both in Florence, Italy), this fifteenth-century Italian Renaissance figure also wrote poems and artistic treatises and pursued a career in cryptography.
In his early thirties, after having studied law in Bologna and subsequently worked in the papal court in Rome, he began writing his first major work, Della Pittura. He later became an Architect for the Vatican.
He penned De Pictura, a treatise on painting that discussed, for the first time, the science of artistic perspective.
He was born in Genoa, Italy, as the illegitimate son of a Florentine nobleman.
His lifetime overlapped with that of fellow Renaissance Man Leonardo da Vinci.
