The Notebooks of Leonardo Da Vinci — Complete by da Vinci Leonardo

2. A study of drapery for the left leg of the same figure, done with

the brush, Indian ink on greenish paper, the lights heightened with white. The original is at Windsor, No. 223. The reproduction Pl. XLIII is defective in the shadow on the upper part of the thigh, which is not so deep as in the original; it should also be observed that the folds of the drapery near the hips are somewhat altered in the finished work in the Louvre, while the London copy shows a greater resemblance to this study in that particular.
