Leonardo da Vinci

The year 2019, the fifth centenary of Leonardo da Vinci's death in France, is particularly significant for the Louvre, which has the world's largest collection of Leonardo's paintings and 22 drawings. In this year of commemoration, the museum finds the opportunity to gather around the five essential paintings it preserves, namely the Virgin of the Rocks, the Beautiful Ferronnière, the Mona Lisa - which remains in the room where it is usually exhibited -, the Saint John the Baptist and the Saint Anne, as many of the artist's paintings as possible, in order to confront them with a wide choice of drawings and a limited but significant number of paintings and sculptures from the master's environment.
