Abstract
This article presents a detailed analysis of the absurd interpretations of Leonardo da Vinci's works in Dan Brown's bestseller ‘Sacrileg’ (The da Vinci Code). However, Brown's approach finds striking parallels in the hermeneutical practice of serious scholarship. Examples analyzed include Leonardo's Virgin of the Rocks, his Mona Lisa and his drawing of the so-called Vitruvian Man, as well as Piero della Francesca's Flagellation of Christ and Aby Warburg's Bilderatlas Mnemosyne.
