EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Leonardo da Vinci's "Studies of proportions of the face (with notes)" created between 1489-1490. The artwork, executed with a metal tip, pen, and brown ink on paper, is housed in the Biblioteca Reale at Musei Reali in Torino. Leonardo da Vinci's mastery shines through as he meticulously captures the intricacies of facial proportions. This drawing exemplifies his keen eye for detail and his unwavering dedication to understanding human anatomy. With every stroke of his pen, da Vinci unravels the secrets behind harmonious facial features. The composition is a testament to both artistry and scientific inquiry. Da Vinci's notes accompanying the drawings reveal his insatiable curiosity about how different parts of the body function together to create an aesthetically pleasing whole. His exploration delves deep into the realms of calligraphy, graphics, and communication as he dissects each element that contributes to facial beauty. The nude studies depicted here offer a glimpse into Leonardo's relentless pursuit of knowledge and perfection. Through this artwork, we are transported back to Europe during the High Renaissance period when artists like da Vinci pushed boundaries by merging science with art. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured in Anderson's photograph from Alinari circa 1890s, we are reminded not only of Leonardo da Vinci's genius but also how timeless his work remains today. It serves as a reminder that true artistic brilliance transcends time and continues to inspire generations across centuries.
