In Walter Isaacson's exploration of Leonardo da Vinci, the author reveals the deep conflict the artist faced between his visionary ideas and the limitations of his own physical abilities. Despite da Vinci's incredible talent and innovative thinking, he often felt that his hands could not fully capture the brilliance of his imagination in his artworks. This struggle highlights the tension between creative ambition and practical execution in the pursuit of perfection.
