Can any art buffs out there verify if this picture is an actual Da Vinci creation?
I found this picture ( http://dragonsinn.net/Gallery/Art7/leonardo_dragon2.jpg ) on Google by searcing "Da Vinci dragon" and I was wondering if anyone could verify that it was actually created by him, because the quality seems a bit off and I can't find it on any actual art sites with full catalogs of his work.
@Michael
Wikipedia does not list his complete works, he has done many verified sketches that are not listed on that Wikipedia page.
The first link is to his complete works and the other his complete drawings. The other links are to his dragon drawings, though you probably already have searched. I agree that the drawing in question is a bit off. It looks like someone used his idea of Vitruvian Man and created their own version of it using a dragon.
