About Leonardo da Vinci and A Bird's Eye View of the Valdichiana (1503)

Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519) made this work around 1503. Between about 1502 and 1504 Leonardo worked as a military engineer and hydraulic planner in central Italy, and later in Rome. He produced maps, plans and bird's-eye views of remarkable accuracy and beauty, some coloured with washes to show rivers, hills and marshes — true landmarks in the history of cartography. It measures about 20.9 x 28.1 cm. Like Leonardo's other drawings at Windsor, it passed after his death to his pupil Francesco Melzi, then to the sculptor Pompeo Leoni and to Thomas Howard, Earl of Arundel, before entering the Royal Collection by around 1690.
