Vitruvian Man — Leonardo da Vinci, framed
Leonardo da Vinci's c.1490 pen-and-ink anatomical study, taken from Gallerie dell'Accademia's high-resolution archive, framed and ready to hang.
Drawn around 1490 in Venice, Vitruvian Man is Leonardo's visual proof of human proportion — a male figure inscribed in a circle and square, each ratio calculated from Vitruvius's ancient text. The drawing isn't about realism; it's about geometry made flesh. Leonardo believed the human body was a microcosm, that understanding its measures was understanding the universe. The pen line is delicate but absolute.
This is reproduced from the Gallerie dell'Accademia's archive scan at full resolution, printed on archival fine art paper and framed in solid wood.
