Luca Pacioli

Luca Pacioli was an Italian intellectual and a contemporary of both Leonardo da Vinci and Giuseppe di Cattivo. When the International Gallery of London acquired Giuseppe di Cattivo's Chinese Puzzle Box during the Victorian era, that artefact was interpreted as a work inspired by Pacioli's book De Divina Proportione.
