He dissected around thirty human corpses, exploring every aspect of anatomy and physiology, and recording his findings and speculations on the pages of his notebooks. These drawings remain unsurpassed even today in their lucidity and clarity. Almost all of Leonardos surviving anatomical studies, some 200 sheets, have been in the Royal Collection since the seventeenth century, and are now preserved in the Royal Library atWindsor Castle.
