His famous Mona Lisa painted around 1503-1506, the epitome of art, and her many faces on the back page demonstrate how art can be used as a means to present subjects in psychological sciences - doctrine of the soul.
Leonardo da Vinci (1459-1519), consummate genius, artist, sculptor, architect, urban planner, inventor, scientist, writer, musician - not exactly a slouch in creative or intellectual pursuits - was probably, the first to utilize the close interrelationship between Art and Science, the major objective of this series of articles.
Now we come to the myth of Mona Lisa, the woman dressed in the Florentine fashion of her day and seated in a visionary, mountainous landscape, which is a remarkable instance of Leonardo's sfumato technique of soft, heavily shaded modeling.

Today, pure science fiction or fantasy books only occasionally make the bestseller lists, although, in overall numbers there are more science fiction or fantasy books published now than in the past.
There are, of course, many borderline cases of works using outer-space settings and futuristic-looking technology as little more than window-dressing for tales of adventure, romance, and other typical dramatic themes; examples include Star Wars (which is considered by some diehards to be not science fiction but fantasy) and many Hollywood space operas.
