Notes et croquis architecture, civile, militaire et navale : feuillets inédits, reproduits d'après les originaux conservés a la Bibliothèque du Chateau de Windsor

Leonardo, da Vinci, 1452-1519 · 1901 · Paris : É. Rouveyre · 10 pictures

A 1901 Paris facsimile by É. Rouveyre reproducing unpublished Leonardo da Vinci sheets from the Windsor Castle library, collected as architecture, military and naval studies. The four plates show pen sketches on aged paper: plan and section diagrams, machine parts, a boat-like hull with notes, and branching tree-like studies with small building forms. A designer might take loose, hand-drawn linework, annotated diagram layouts, and the warm grey-cream tone of old paper for historical or technical styling.
