"Study for a Kneeling Leda" is a drawing by the Italian Renaissance master Leonardo da Vinci, created between 1503 and 1507. This work is a preparatory study for an unfinished painting, "Leda and the Swan," which was to depict the mythological story of Leda, the Queen of Sparta, who was seduced by Zeus in the form of a swan. The myth has been a popular subject in the visual arts, particularly during the Renaissance.

Leonardo's "Study for a Kneeling Leda" showcases his meticulous approach to planning his compositions and his deep understanding of human anatomy. The drawing is executed in black chalk or charcoal, and it captures the figure of Leda in a complex, twisted pose, reflecting Leonardo's interest in dynamic movement and the expressive potential of the human body.

The study is notable for its detailed rendering of Leda's kneeling form, as she turns to look at the swan behind her. Leonardo's expertise in depicting the human figure is evident in the careful attention to the musculature and the naturalistic portrayal of Leda's posture. The work also exemplifies Leonardo's sfumato technique, with delicate shading that creates a soft transition between light and shadow, imbuing the figure with a sense of three-dimensionality.

Although the final painting of "Leda and the Swan" is lost to history, with only copies by later artists and other preparatory studies remaining, "Study for a Kneeling Leda" provides valuable insight into Leonardo's artistic process and his contributions to the portrayal of mythological subjects in art. The drawing is held in high esteem by art historians and is considered an important piece within Leonardo's oeuvre, reflecting his ceaseless exploration of form, anatomy, and the challenges of translating myth into visual art.
