As a result of a childhood trauma (possibly a bone fracture), the forefinger of Leonardo da Vinci’s left hand could not bend completely together with his other fingers. Because of this in his self-portraits, as well as in the painting depicting Jesus, Leonardo da Vinci's forefinger stands out compared to his other fingers which shows individuality. Leonardo da Vinci’s teacher, Andrea del Verrocchio, in the work "Tobias and the Angel", where Tobias is Leonardo da Vinci, represented a fish hanging on Tobias’s forefinger (finger-hook). |

| Research 1. Comparison of Leonardo Da Vinci’s self-portraits | |
 |
Comparison of "Self-portrait № 1" (on the left) and "Self-portrait № 2" (on the right). Young people of about the same age (15 - 20 years old, Caucasian type) are represented in both works of Leonardo da Vinci: "Self-portrait № 1" and "Self-portrait № 2". In spite of the fact that the positions of their heads (an inclination and turn) are different, the visually presented people possess typical similarity and there are enough signs of appearance which are subject to comparison...read more |
| Research 2. Comparison of Leonardo da Vinci’s works "Self-portrait № 2" and "Ecce Homo" | |
 |
Leonardo da Vinci's "Self-portrait № 2" (on the left) and Leonardo da Vinci’s “Ecce Homo” (on the right) are presented for research. In the first painting a young man, about 15-20 years old, is depicted. In the second one – a middle aged man, about 30-35 years old, is represented against the dark background. In these images, the turn of the head is identical, with a different tilted angle of the head forward, and a different direction of look...read more |
| Research 3. Comparison of "Leonardo da Vinci" bust and icon № 1 with Jesus Christ's image | |
 |
The image of a bust is specific and notable for its incompleteness and less accurate portrayal of appearance than the face in the icon. Nevertheless, the faces are in the same plane with an identical turn of the head and a small difference in head tilt (on the bust the head is tilted back for 3-5º). A comparison of the appearances in the presented works can be made by visually contrasting those signs which are suitable for comparison...read more |
| Research 4. Comparison of "Self-portrait № 3" and icon № 2 with Jesus Christ's image | |
 |
People of about the same age (middle age, 35-45 years), are depicted with different tilt and turn of their heads in these paintings. For visual comparison of the presented people, the image on the right was rotated to the left (21º), both images were brought to approximately the same size (it isn't possible to accurately measure a 19 mm distance between their pupils because of different gaze directions), and discoloured. The expression on the face of the icon is not a typical portrait, but a grotesque portrayal of a person...read more |
| Research 5. Comparison of Leonardo da Vinci's work "Self-portrait № 3" and a bust "Leonardo da Vinci" | |
 |
The peculiarity of this comparison is in the fact that a subjective portrayal of the person in the painting is compared to the image on the bust, whose material cannot display a rather large number of signs of appearance, or represents them with less accuracy, than the painting. However, considering the detailed elaboration of the marble bust and a small difference in the angle of the presented objects in this case it is possible to apply the method of visual comparison, the method of comparison of relative sizes, as well as combining by the medial line...read more |
| Research 6. Comparison of Francesco Melzi's portrait "Leonardo da Vinci" and a profile bust "Leonardo da Vinci" created by Leonardo da Vinci | |
 |
In this research elements of a person's appearance displayed in the profile of the face were studied. In the images provided below the forehead, the nose, the nasal bridge and lips act as the main elements of appearance. These features can be compared from this angle using the methods of visual comparison. The images were brought to the identical size of the faces and discoloured...read more |
| Research 7. Research of a hand-written text in a painting | |

The people are depicted with small deviations in position of the head, in "Self-portrait № 1" the head is tilted backwards.
