Best Answer

Leonardo was interested in the structure and musculature of the human body. In his time period dissecting a human body was very illegal and against the rules of the Church. He chose to dissect cadavers in order to see the structures of the body so he could better portray the human form. As a scientist he was also very interested in how things work.
