[EXCERPT] . . . .

I understand there is an opening for this position and in all candor and humility, I believe my previous experiences as painter, scientist, architect, engineer, inventor, mathematician, astronomer and philosopher have led me to a place in my professional life where I want to share what knowledge and experience I have with bright young people. Young people are the future of society and must bring with them as they grow into adults the verve, the imagination, the energy and the knowledge -- the tools of the mind and body -- that can propel our world into a healthy and vital place for all humans. I believe I could be an important part of their education, and it is my goal to be the person who can inspire and teach simultaneously.

My contributions to the planet include my well-received paintings (Mona Lisa, Last Supper, among others), which have brought joy and inspiration to many; and my engineering innovations may serve as inspiration for talented young men and women seeking to carve out careers in the arts. My inventions that have led to technological advancements (gears, levers, utilitarian devices that can bring water from wells seamlessly), and my work with the principals of momentum, have been part of my artistic achievement. I have made advances in astronomy, in Alchemy, in Geometry, Cartography, Hydrodynamics, Geology, Botany and Comparative anatomy, Topographic anatomy, Natural science, and more.

Again, thank you very kindly for your consideration of my application for a professorship at the Florence Academy of Art. I look forward to hearing from you. I also look forward to using the gondolas on those lovely canals in Florence again. Not merely because my designs were used in the construction of the canals, but because it is such an enchanted experience to glide quietly along the water in the midst of a major Italian city. I will most certainly live up to your expectations if you see it appropriate to bring me into your community of talent.
