A great many things have the golden ratio in them varying from things fabricated by humans such as architecture, the proportions of the sides of a book also fall into the golden ratio. The golden ratio also occurs naturally for example the spiral in the snail's shell falls into the golden ratio. Generally most man made things have the golden ratio in them as it has been found quite simply, to look good.
That was the Vitruvian Man from Davinci
No. The Golden ratio is an irrational number: [1 + sqrt(5)]/2 = 1.6180, approx. It is found in many patterns - in nature as well as man-made.
The golden ratio is a pure number and so has no dimensions.The golden ratio is a pure number and so has no dimensions.The golden ratio is a pure number and so has no dimensions.The golden ratio is a pure number and so has no dimensions.
The Golden Ratio is a constant = [1 + sqrt(5)]/2. There is, therefore, no higher or lower Golden Ratio.
No one "created" proportion - In the Renaissance, artists recognized relationships and ratios that exist in nature. Leonardo's vitruvian man is an example of an artist studying and seeing relationships. Another example is the 'Golden Rectangle' or 'Golden Mean' discovered by the Ancient Greeks, it is considered the most pleasing ratio.
About 1487.
Not a painting, but a drawing, called Vitruvian Man.
Despite attempts by Vitruvius and Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian man, this is essentially a myth. Facial proportions are too variable to fit into so simplistic a pattern. It is probably true, that faces that display the golden proportion are more appealing in some cultures but even there, it is not clear how cross-cultural that appeal is.
so it can help in measurements.
34.4 x 25.5
There is a scene in the begining of The Da Vinci Code where the murder victim is arranged as the Vitruvian Man.

Da Vinci worked this out by drawing the vitruvian man (the guy in a circle wih his arms outstretched) check out his works rather than medical text.
