At the start, it seems that way, but as the bridge construction progresses, the resemblance stops. I'll post a video showing a father and son making a Da Vinci bridge tomorrow. The sorts of wooden/timber arch bridges the men in the video linked here made would've been general knowledge to educated renaissance Italians following Marco Polo's trips back from China since they were common place in the Song dynasty period. Ironically, during the previous Tang Dynasty the Chinese regularly made stone mason bridges, but due to the excesses of Empress Wu's reign, 53 years later when the Song came to power, the Chinese lacked both the knowledge and the means to afford building large structures of any kind more durable than wood.
