1490-1493 Leonardo da Vinci The V&A has five of Leonardo's notebooks, bound together in three volumes probably in the 17th century. This one was compiled over a number of years while Leonardo was working for Duke Ludovico Sforza in Milan. It includes drawings of hats, which probably relate to costumes required for court festivities, and extensive notes about geometry, hydraulics and weights. Sketches of a horse's legs may relate to a project to create a vast bronze equestrian monument commemorating Francesco Sforza. (MS.141.111)
