After the first showing in Florence at the Uffizi Gallery (28 March 2006 – 7 January 2007), where the exhibition was visited by over 1,100,000 people, and the second one at the Tokyo National Museum (20 March – 17 June 2007), that had seen nearly 800,000 visitors in less than three months, "The Mind of Leonardo" will be presented to the Hungarian public at the MODEM–Museum of Modern Art in Debrecen, under the title "Az igazi Da Vinci".
The exhibition was conceived and produced by the IMSS in Florence and the State Museums of Florence, with the contribution of the Ente Cassa di Risparmio di Firenze. The Debrecen exhibition is promoted by the IMSS, in collaboration with MODEM and the Municipality of Debrecen.
The Debrecen show displays the sections III to VI of the original exhibition, integrated with a new section devoted to Leonardo's studies on horses and an extraordinary life-size reconstruction of the Sforza Horse, a gigantic equestrian monument over 7 metres high, both of which were created expressly for the Hungarian public.
