10 drawings from the Royal Collection are exhibited and it's great to be able to see original drawings from 500 years ago. This picture is 'The Head of Leda' and the detail is amazing. We had to go as part of the coursework related to observational drawing, and I'm so glad I did.

(It was brilliant to see Leonardo's 'special' writing! I enjoyed that as much as the sketches)

I'm being told there's something wrong and my blog has turned to gobbledygook. Oops, sorry, I'll explain:
My first sentence is written backwards in the way that Leonardo used to write. Just a bit of fun ~ me being silly!
