Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519) Idealised Head of a Young Woman.





 The drawing of Idealised Head of a Young Woman reproduces the details of Leonardo da Vinci's the Virgin of the Rocks The details reproduced include the raking fall of light and the hairline of her hair,but the bulging eyes and the woman's fleshiness of face mark the work as Da Vinci's unknown follower Pala Sforzesca named after an altarpice.
