Famous Leonardo da Vinci artworks: names, dates and why they still matter

If someone searches for Leonardo da Vinci paintings, drawings, famous artworks or Renaissance masterpieces, these are the works they usually mean. This section keeps it direct.

c. 1503-1506, likely worked later

Mona Lisa

Leonardo's most famous portrait, known for its sfumato modeling, controlled atmosphere and the sitter's famously elusive expression. It remains one of the most recognisable paintings in the world.

c. 1495-1498

The Last Supper

Painted in Milan at Santa Maria delle Grazie, this mural is celebrated for its dramatic reaction scene at the moment Christ announces betrayal.

c. 1490

Vitruvian Man

One of the defining images of Renaissance thought, joining anatomy, geometry and ideal proportion in a single drawing.

c. 1489-1491

Lady with an Ermine

Usually identified as Cecilia Gallerani, this portrait is admired for its intelligence, poise and the unusual presence of the ermine.

c. 1472-1475

Annunciation

An early Leonardo work associated with his youth in Verrocchio's workshop, already showing his instinct for landscape space and natural observation.

c. 1474-1478

Ginevra de' Benci

One of Leonardo's earliest surviving portraits and the only painting by him in the Americas, now in Washington, D.C.

1483-1486, with a later related version

Virgin of the Rocks

Famous for its cave setting, smoky tonal transitions and quietly mysterious atmosphere, this is one of Leonardo's most haunting religious images.

begun c. 1481

Adoration of the Magi

Unfinished, but immensely revealing. It shows Leonardo thinking at full speed, turning a biblical scene into a restless theatre of bodies, movement and attention.

c. 1500, with attribution debates

Salvator Mundi

One of the most debated Leonardo-related works in the modern art market, famous for both its image of Christ and the arguments around attribution, restoration and value.

c. 1513-1516

Saint John the Baptist

A late Leonardo work with a dark, luminous presence and a smile that feels almost spectral against the black ground.

c. 1500-1505

La Scapigliata

Prized for its unfinished softness, this head study feels intimate and alive, as if the image is still emerging from thought.

c. 1470s contribution

The Baptism of Christ

Primarily a Verrocchio workshop painting, but Leonardo is traditionally linked to parts of it, especially the angel at left and passages of landscape refinement.
