Title:
The Burlington House Cartoon
Object name(s):
Picture; Italian
Brief description:
The Virgin Mary sits on her mother's lap, her attention focused on the wriggling Christ Child. Her mother, Saint Anne, looks intently at her through deep-set eyes and points upwards to the heavens, indicating the child's divinity. Christ's cousin, Saint John the Baptist, leans against Anne's lap as the baby Christ tickles his chin.This large drawing was made in preparation for a painting, probably as a presentation drawing: a full-sized study of what the planned picture might look like, which could be shown to a patron, or group of patrons. It was, in a sense, intended as a work of art in its own right, unlike other cartoons that were typically used to physically transfer a design of the drawing to the support for painting. Often known as 'The Burlington House Cartoon’, it is the only surviving large-scale drawing by Leonardo.Parts of the drawing are densely shaded and contrasted with lighter areas to give a three-dimensional effect, for example the figures' faces and elements of the draperies such as sections of the Virgin's sleeve and the folds of fabric which cover Saint Anne's knees. Other areas, such as the women's headdresses and feet, and Saint Anne's pointing hand, are simply indicated with outlines.
