Annnunicating Angel (Around 1513)
Annunciating Angel is a chalk drawing on paper that was created in around 1513.
It is attributed by multiple commentators to Leornardo da Vinci. [1] [2]
This drawing has also been attributed to one of Leonardo's pupils. [3] It also been attribtued to Gian Giacomo Caprotti known as Salai. [4] [5]
The drawing is in a private collection. Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).
There is a small pinhole in the top of this sheet and it is specualted that this suggests that it was at one stage tacked up in a studio. [6]
