"Man Proportions by Leonardo da Vinci" refers to a set of studies and drawings by the Italian polymath that explore the ideal human proportions. The most famous of these is the "Vitruvian Man," created around 1490, which is a pen and ink drawing accompanied by notes based on the work of the ancient Roman architect Vitruvius. Leonardo's work on human proportions is a testament to his multidisciplinary approach, combining art, science, and mathematics.

The Vitruvian Man depicts a male figure in two superimposed positions with his arms and legs apart and simultaneously inscribed in a circle and square. The drawing and text are sometimes called the Canon of Proportions or, less often, Proportions of Man. This image exemplifies the blend of art and science during the Renaissance and provides a cornerstone of Leonardo's attempts to relate man to nature. Encyclopedic in scope and ambition, the drawing represents a cornerstone of Leonardo's attempts to understand the human body in geometric terms and reflects his belief in the "microcosm-macrocosm" analogy, which posits that the workings of the human body are an analogy for the workings of the universe.

Leonardo's interest in human anatomy led him to dissect human and animal bodies, which informed his understanding of physical proportion. His studies on proportions are not limited to the Vitruvian Man but include numerous other sketches and writings that delve into the details of human anatomy, exploring the relationships between the sizes of various body parts and their idealized geometrical representations.

The Vitruvian Man remains one of the most reproduced artistic images, symbolizing the blend of art and science that defines the Renaissance and Leonardo's oeuvre. It is held by the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice, Italy, and, due to its fragility, is displayed only on special occasions. Leonardo's work on human proportions has had a lasting impact on both art and the study of human anatomy, influencing artists and scientists for centuries.
