Notes on the casting of the Sforza monument.

All the heads of the large nails.

[Footnote: See Pl. LXXVI, No. i. This drawing has already been published in the “Saggio delle Opere di L. da Vinci.” Milano 1872, Pl. XXIV, No. i. But, for various reasons I cannot regard the editor’s suggestions as satisfactory. He says: “Veggonsi le armature di legname colle quali forse venne sostenuto il modello, quando per le nozze di Bianca Maria Sforza con Massimiliano imperatore, esso fu collocato sotto un arco trionfale davanti al Castello.”

Taken from The Notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci edited by Jean Paul Richter, 1880.
