This exhibition presents ten of the finest surviving drawings by Leonardo da Vinci, selected from the outstanding collection of his work in the Royal Collection.

The drawings show the variety of Leonardo's drawings materials and the types of drawings that he made during his career.  All but one are private papers, never intended to be seen by anyone else, and many are annotated in his habitual 'mirror writing'.  They show Leonardo's remarkable range of interests as an artist and scientist, and capture the essential curiosity of the archetypal 'Renaissance man'.
