List of works by Leonardo da Vinci

The Last Supper is Leonardo da Vinci's most famous work of religious art and his only surviving mural.

Leonardo da Vinci (baptised Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci) ( pronunciation ), (April 15, 1452 – May 2, 1519) was one of the leading artists of the High Renaissance. Fifteen works are generally attributed either in whole or in large part to him. Most are paintings on panel, with the remainder a mural, a large drawing on paper, and two works in the early stages of preparation. The authorship of several paintings traditionally attributed to Leonardo being disputed. Two major works are known only as copies. Works are regularly attributed to Leonardo with varying degrees of credibility. None of Leonardo's paintings are signed. The attributions here draw on the opinions of various scholars.[1]

The small number of surviving paintings is due in part to Leonardo's frequently disastrous experimentation with new techniques, and his chronic procrastination. Nevertheless, these few works together with his notebooks, which contain drawings, scientific diagrams, and his thoughts on the nature of painting, comprise a contribution to later generations of artists rivalled only by that of his contemporary, Michelangelo.

Leonardo and another artist?[lower-alpha 3]
Leonardo was documented as working on a painting of this subject in Florence in 1501; it appears to have been delivered to its patron in 1507. This and the Lansdowne Madonna are the most likely candidates for being that work, but neither is considered to be wholly autograph. Scientific examination has revealed "strikingly complex and similar" underdrawings in both versions, suggesting that Leonardo was involved in the making of both.[5]
The use of walnut wood suggests the earlier terminus post quem of 1499, as Leonardo's Milanese paintings are on this support.[6]

Tobias and the Angel
Egg tempera on poplar
83.6 × 66 cm
London, National Gallery
A painting by Verrocchio while Leonardo was in his workshop. Martin Kemp suggests that Leonardo may have painted some part of this work, most likely the fish. David Alan Brown, of the National Gallery in Washington, attributes the painting of the dog to him as well.
c.1473 (KEMP 2011)
no date in MARANI 2000, but accepted by him
The Dreyfus Madonna
Oil on panel
15.7 × 12.8 cm, 6.13 × 5 in
Washington, D.C., National Gallery of Art
Previously attributed to Verrocchio or Lorenzo di Credi. The anatomy of the Christ Child is so poor as to discourage firm attribution by most critics while some believe that it is a work of Leonardo's youth. This attribution was made by Suida in 1929. Other art historians such as Shearman and Morelli attribute the work to Verrocchio.[1] Daniel Arasse discusses this painting as a youthful work in Leonardo da Vinci, (1997).[7]
probably c.1469

Generally attributed to Ambrogio de Predis. The face is thought to show the hand of Leonardo.[8]
c.1493–5
Portrait of a Young Fiancée
(La Bella Principessa)
Bodycolour (pastel) on vellum
33 × 22 cm
Switzerland, Private collection
Identified as a Leonardo by Martin Kemp on stylistic grounds, and confirmed using the evidence of a fingerprint.[9] Other experts have not agreed with this attribution. As of 2010 the methods used to analyse the fingerprint have come into question.[10] The presence of holes in the page shows it was once part of the Sforziade a manuscript kept in Warsaw, this fact points to its originality.
Salvator Mundi
Salvator Mundi
Oil on wood panel
45.4 cm × 65.6 cm, 25.8 in × 17.9 in
New York City, private collection
Accepted by some scholars[11]
Previously presumed to be the a later copy of a lost painting. Since its recent cleaning, it has gained acceptance as Leonardo's original. Pentimenti (changes to the composition) were found in the thumb of Christ's right hand and elsewhere and are indicators of the paintings status as an "original".[12]

Lucan Portrait of Leonardo da Vinci
tempera grassa on poplar
40 cm × 60 cm
Museo delle Antiche Genti di Lucania, Vaglio Basilicata
A painting discovered in 2008 near Naples, maybe the original self portrait of Leonardo da Vinci, is actually under deep restoration in order to obtain further proofs of the authenticity. It has been validated by scholars like Peter Hohenstatt (University of Parma), Alessandro Tomei (University of Chieti-Pescara), Jan Royt (University of Prague), David Bershad (University of Calgary) and Orest Kormashov (University of Tallin). The Carbon-14 analysis, the chemical analysis of the painting used and the "pentimento" sketches found under the painting may suggest the autography of the painting. The resemblance with the Uffizi XVII century copy of the "Self portrait of Leonardo da Vinci" is striking.
c.1505-1510

Lost works

Details Notes Image
Dragon shield
A juvenile work described by Giorgio Vasari, who said it was sold by Ser Piero da Vinci to merchants, who then sold it on to the Duke of Milan.[15]
Adam and Eve
Watercolour cartoon for a tapestry
Described in great detail by Vasari and the "Anonimo Gaddiano". Painted for the King of Portugal, it was in the collection of Ottaviano de' Medici in Vasari's lifetime. The composition might have inspired a drawing by Francesco di Giorgio Martini in the Christ Church Picture Gallery, Oxford.[15]
Medusa
Oil on panel
A juvenile work described by Vasari.
San Bernardo Altarpiece
Oil on panel
A commission for the chapel in Palazzo della Signoria, Florence, allocated to Leonardo on 10 January 1478 but never completed.[15] The commission had originally been given to Piero del Pollaiolo on 24 December 1477; its reallocation might have been arranged by Leonardo's father, who was a notary to the Signoria. After Leonardo's failure to fulfill the commission it was given to Domenico Ghirlandaio on 20 May 1483, but he did not complete the work either. It is sometimes mistakenly said that a Virgin and Child with Saints in the Uffizi by Filippino Lippi was the work finally delivered to the chapel, but this was painted for the Sala dei Dugento (council hall) of the palace.[16]
The Battle of Anghiari
Commissioned 4 May 1504
  • Peter Paul Rubens, copy of Leonardo's The Battle of Anghiari (pictured). Black chalk, pen and ink heightened with lead white, over-painted with watercolour, 54.2 x 63.7 cm. Musée du Louvre
The remains of Leonardo's fresco may have been discovered in the Hall of the Five Hundred (Salone dei Cinquecento) in the Palazzo Vecchio, Florence.
Leda and the Swan
c.1504–8[15]
Recorded by Cassiano dal Pozzo as being at Château de Fontainebleau in 1625
There are nine known copies of the painting, including:
Angel of the Annunciation
c.1510–3[15]
The painting is described by Vasari. A drawing survives among studies for the Battle of Anghiari (see below). The drawing at right, known as The Incarnate Angel is a satirical copy, perhaps by Salaì, in the Kunstmuseum Basel.[17] There are some extant copies of the subject by Leonardeschi, including:
  • Workshop of Leonardo da Vinci? Angel of the Annunciation, c. 1505–13? Oil on canvas (transferred from panel), 66 × 47.3 cm, Hermitage, St. Petersburg.[18]
  • Workshop of Leonardo da Vinci? St John the Baptist, c. 1508–13? Panel, 71 × 52 cm, Kunstmuseum Basel.[19]
  • Workshop of Leonardo da Vinci? St John the Baptist, c. 1508–13? Oil on panel, 75 × 53.4 cm, Ashmolean Museum, Oxford.[20]
  • Baccio Bandinelli. Annunciate Angel. Sketch after Leonardo da Vinci.

Some recent attributions

Image Details Attribution status
Madonna and Child with St Joseph or Adoration of the Christ Child
Tempera on panel
Diameter 87 cm
Rome, Galleria Borghese
Previously attributed to Fra Bartolomeo. After recent cleaning, the Borghese Gallery sought attribution as a work of Leonardo's youth, based on the presence of a fingerprint similar to one that appears in The Lady with the Ermine. Result of investigation not available.[21]
Mary Magdalene
Switzerland, private collection
Recently attributed as a Leonardo by Carlo Pedretti. Previously regarded as the work of Giampietrino who painted a number of similar Magdalenes.[22] Carlo Pedretti's attribution of this painting is not accepted by other scholars, e.g. Carlo Bertelli, (former director of the Brera Art Gallery in Milan), who said this painting is not by Leonardo and that the subject could be a Lucretia with the knife removed.[23]
Virgin of the Rocks Cheramy
Virgin of the Rocks Cheramy
Oil on wood panel, transferred to canvas.
154,5 × 122 cm;
Switzerland, Private Collection, formerly Paris, Chéramy Collection
Generally attributed to Giampetrino. Recently attributed to Leonardo and workshop by Professor Carlo Pedretti. Mentioned by Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres in 1845 and by Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, who were both convinced that it was a Leonardo original.
c.1495–7 (PEDRETTI)
c.1495–7 (MARANI 1991)
Christ Carrying the Cross
c. 1500
Oil on poplar
San Francisco, private collection
Previously attributed by Sotheby's to Gian Francesco Maineri.[24][25] Attributed to Leonardo by its present owner.[24] Attribution based on the similarity of the tormentors of Christ to drawings made by Rubens of the Battle of Anghiari. According to Forbes Magazine, Leonardo expert Carlo Pedretti said that he knew of three similar paintings and that "All four paintings, he believed, were likely the work of Leonardo's studio assistants and perhaps even the master himself."[24]
Lucan Portrait of Leonardo
Vaglio Basilicata, Museo delle Antiche Genti di Lucania
Discovered in 2008 in a private collection and identified as a self-portrait by Peter Hohenstatt and others. A date in the late 15th or 16th century has been confirmed by scientific testing. Fingerprints match those found on the Lady with the Ermine. Alternately attributed to Cristofano dell'Altissimo.[26]
Isleworth Mona Lisa
Switzerland, private collection
Its proponents claim that this is the earlier of two versions of the Mona Lisa, painted for Francesco del Giocondo (husband of Lisa) in 1503, and that the Louvre version was painted for Giuliano de' Medici in 1517.[27]
Horse and Rider
c. 1508
Private collection, London
Recently discovered[28] fragmentary wax statuette in a private collection in London, formerly in the Sangiorgi Collection in Rome, said to have come from the Melzi estate at Vaprio d’Adda. Attributed as “by Leonardo himself” by Professor Carlo Pedretti, in 1985.[29][30]
