The moral of the even out - ever larn 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 reply (except for those inwards brackets). I'm using the details provided yesteryear the Royal Collection.

Title of the artwork - A written 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 afterward 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 function on the Royal Collection website

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

This beautiful drawing comprises 2 carve upward studies of crossed hands, each concentrating on 1 manus only. It may bring been a written report for Leonardo’s pocket-size portrait of a Lady amongst an ermine inwards Krakow, Poland. The sitter’s mental attitude inwards the icon is highly original; although the hands inwards the drawing produce non stand upward for inwards pose amongst those inwards the painting, they are identical inwards type, long, slender as well as elegant, as well as it is possible that the drawing was a source written report for the portrait.

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

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