Painted in around 1500, this small panel is one of a number derived from Leonardo’s Madonna Litta (State Hermitage Museum, St Petersburg). The artist has drawn on the works of several of Leonardo’s followers, creating a kind of jigsaw based on bits of compositions by other artists. The views through the windows are perhaps where he expressed his own personality – a tiny woman does her washing in a river on the left, and a man with a bundle on a stick over his shoulder walks through the fields on the right.
