Vitruvian Man

Hi hi sisters .... I dug out this very interesting picture, haha, someone had actually taken the effort to 'size' up Yong Joon! (thanks to the site/sister whom I got it from) Not surprisingly, our handsome prince is perfectly proportioned from head to toes :)

This reminds me of the drawing 'Vitruvian Man' by Leonardo da Vinci in 1487. It is based on the correlations of ideal human proportions with geometry. Based on ancient Roman architect Vitruvius' work, Da Vinci believed the workings of the human body to be an analogy for the workings of the universe. This is part of the long list on his study of the proportions of a (male) human body :

- a palm is the width of four fingers
- a foot is the width of four palms
. . . .
- the length of a man's outspread arms (arm span) is equal to his height
. . . .
- the maximum width of the shoulders is a quarter of a man's height
- the distance from the middle of the chest to the top of the head is a quarter of a man's height
. . . .
- the length of the hand is one-tenth of a man's height
. . . .
the length of a man's foot is one-sixth of his height

Hehe, I think you got the picture here :) Since I do not have the fortune (probably not even in my next life as I know the waiting list is pretty long already) to have such intimate access to our handsome prince. There is no way I can verify if he is a 'Vitruvian Man' or not, maybe you can be the judge here'?

Your verdict? Do we even need to ask? Hope you enjoy :)
