The volume details the human form as Leonardo saw it — muscles, bones, organs, and sinew rendered with an accuracy that would not be surpassed for generations — and illustrates the profound intersection of art and science that defined his approach. Scholarly yet visually stunning, the catalogue stands as an essential record of one of history's greatest minds at work, and an enduring tribute to the collection held at Windsor Castle.
