This is from a painting by a man called Peter Breughel. He painted the picture around the year 1565
The painting shows a boy with a 'nutmill’ or “eggmill” and a girl with a spinning top.
It was the Japanese that created a flying toy called the Taketombo. Was it inspired by Da Vinci’s girocopter?
The nutmill is a toy probably based on a drawing by Leonardo Da Vinci of a device he called a 'Gyro copter"
