Who Painted This #7 - The Answer

A report of a woman's hands yesteryear Leonardo da Vinci

There are 2 firsts this week

The someone who posted the starting fourth dimension right respond every bit to the hollo too the creative someone in Who painted this? #6 was Rose Welty (Rose Welty Art Studio) inwards North Carolina who got the respond most 30 minutes after it was posted.
The starting fourth dimension people to larn the right respond for ALL the information required - every bit per the Royal Collection - were Miles too Pippa, Studio Blue Sea who are sailing too are currently off the coast of Portugal.

The moral of the storey - ever become dorsum to the master copy source if you lot tin to larn the right provenance!

Here are all the details I was after inwards the respond (except for those inwards brackets). I'm using the details provided yesteryear the Royal Collection.

Title of the artwork - A report of a woman's hands
Name of the creative someone - Leonardo da Vinci (born Vinci 1452 - died Amboise 1519)
Date it was created - c.1490 (ie after than the appointment given on Wikipedia)
Media used - Metalpoint amongst white heightening over charcoal on pale buff prepared paper; 21.5 x 15.0 cm (again - slightly dissimilar to Wikipedia)
Current Home - Royal Collection

This is the description of the conduct house the Royal Collection website

A report of a woman's hands folded over her breast. The right manus is asset an object betwixt the finger too thumb. Below is a report of folded hands. In the upper right surface area in that place is a slight sketch of a grotesque caput inwards profile to the right.

This beautiful drawing comprises 2 dissever studies of crossed hands, each concentrating on 1 manus only. It may accept been a report for Leonardo’s modest portrait of a Lady amongst an ermine inwards Krakow, Poland. The sitter’s mental attitude inwards the prototype is highly original; although the hands inwards the drawing do non stand upward for inwards pose amongst those inwards the painting, they are identical inwards type, long, slender too elegant, too it is possible that the drawing was a starting fourth dimension report for the portrait.

Check out this link to see a detailed too annotated prototype of Lady amongst an Ermine. The writer comments on Cecilia's disproportionately large hands too Leonardo da Vinci's practise of making drawings of hands inwards his sketchbooks.

Here are the other 26 people who got it right. There are too hence many I've excluded the few to a greater extent than who got partial answers only.
