This Da Vinci Code T-shirt Takes a Rock Approach to Science

This Da Vinci Code t-shirt isn't quite what you'd expect. Instead of the classic Da Vinci drawing of a man with outstretched arms and legs, surrounded by a circle, this t-shirt flips the concept to a rock 'n roll slant. Now, the figure in the middle of the circle is rocking out on his guitar. The scratchy, unclear texture of the original drawing is mimicked here, which makes it the kind of parody that might even fool some people into thinking it is the real drawing.
The t-shirt itself is VintageBlend by Headline Shirts and was made in San Francisco. It features a cotton and polyester fabric blend and eco-friendly discharge ink. You can pick one up at HeadlineShirts.net.
