Ten Drawings By Leonardo da Vinci

Ten Drawings By Leonardo da Vinci

The Ferens Art Gallery is the only Yorkshire venue to host this exciting exhibition, which includes some of Leonardo da Vinci’s finest drawings. The ten drawings reflect the artist's use of different media and his extraordinary range of interests from painting and sculpture to engineering, botany, mapmaking, hydraulics, and anatomy.

The exhibition includes designs for chariots fitted with flailing clubs, a study of the head of Leda, a drawing of oak leaves, a double-sided sheet of anatomical sketches, a design for a scheme to drain marshland, a view of a river from a window, a costume study of a man on horseback, apocalyptic scenes, and a rough study of an old man in profile, which is one of the last drawings made by the artist.
