Conceived during Leonardo da Vinci’s second Florentine and Milanese periods, Leda and the Swan stands as Leonardo’s primary major mythological composition. Although Leonardo’s original autograph painting was lost in the 17th century, the masterwork was preserved for history through high-level workshop copies, including the celebrated panel in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence. The composition depicts Leda, Queen of Sparta, standing in an elegant contrapposto pose wrapped in the wings of Jupiter disguised as a swan. At her feet, her divine children—Castor, Pollux, Helen of Troy, and Clytemnestra—hatch from two giant eggs amid a detailed tapestry of flowers and river plants, showcasing Leonardo’s fascination with nature, fertility, and organic growth.
