The screenshots from [
68 Scorpion, Part One] are of the holoscenario comprising the workshop of the noted Leonardo da Vinci, set in 1502. There is a workbench on which are various sketches, including a preliminary sketch for the famous Mona Lisa painting, models, pigment jars and half-prepared canvases. Elsewhere there are design sketches of machines, for the Maestro was an eminent engineer, many of which ended up in the Codex Atlanticus. There is also a model of a geometric shape, which da Vinci developed as a 2-dimensional art-form in order to illustrate his friend Luca Pacioli's influential book 'The Divine Proportion', and as a result of that book's publication the inclusion of a geometric shape in paintings, house that became popular at this time.
[68 Scorpion, Part One], the skull on the workbench infers Leonardo's interest in anatomy and nature
[68 Scorpion, Part One], the starfish is seen by the window in [74 The Raven] and [79 Concerning Flight]
[68 Scorpion, Part One], the wooden hand used by artists to test poses etc. appears in different places in the workshop throughout the Da Vinci episodes

In the above screenshot the following can be seen:
- A crossbow. Leonardo drew a design for a large crossbow c.1499 (sources differ with 1480-82 also noted). He also produced designs for a rapid-firing crossbow machine manned by several people.
- To the right of the crossbow is a preliminary sketch for the Mona Lisa, Leonardo's most famous painting.

In the Holo-workshop scenario can be seen (part of) "The Annunciation" - see excerpt left - mouseover the image to see the painting the correct way up |  The Annunciation |
Also in the screenshot above, in the top righthand part of the picture, is seen a three-dimensional polyhedron, which I believe is a model of Leonardo's duodecahedron.

The polyhedron recalls Leonardo's great interest in geometrical shapes and his geometrical illustrations for Luca Pacioli's book "De Divina Proportione" about form and proportion. The book greatly influenced art of the period. |  polyhedra |
[68 Scorpion, Part One], the drawing is Holo-Leonardo's of the Arm of Hephaestos; I cannot find mention of it nor of Hephaestos (in various spellings) in Richter who translated with commentary and published all of Leonardo's literary works and drawings in the late 19th century, for information about Richter see Sources
[68 Scorpion, Part One], screenshot to show Holo-Leonardo's drawing of the Arm of Hephaestos, this is as close up as it is ever seen
[68 Scorpion, Part One], I cannot find the drawings seen in this screenshot in Richter
