Leonardo's Manuscripts: Abbreviations

Ar. = Codex Arundel 263, British Library, London. The diverse compilation of material dates from ca. 1478–1518.

C. A. = Codex Atlanticus, 12 vols., Biblioteca Ambrosiana, Milan. The drawings and notes pasted into these volumes also represent an amalgamation of material from dates that range from ca. 1478 to 1518. Here citations refer to the foliation of the codex both before its restoration in 1977–1980 (to correspond with Jean Paul Richter's anthology of Leonardo's notes; Richter 1883, 1970) and after restoration.

C. Urb. = Codex Urbinas Latinus 1270, Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana. This is the Libro di Pittura, posthumously compiled by Francesco Melzi, based on Leonardo's notes. The anthology of precepts was produced between 1515 and 1570.

C. V. U. = Codice del Volo degli Uccelli, or Codex on the Flight of Birds, Biblioteca Reale Cod. Varia 95, Turin. This manuscript was originally part of Paris Ms. B, Institut de France, Paris, and was probably extracted in the theft by Count Guglielmo Libri (1803–1869) around 1840–47. The manuscript is dated 1505.

Fo. I, Fo. II, Fo. III = Codex Forster I, Codex Forster II, Codex Forster III, Victoria and Albert Museum, London. The first part of Forster I (fols. 1–40) is dated 1505, the second part (fols. 41–55) is probably from ca. 1487–90. The first part of Forster II (fols. 1–63) probably dates from ca. 1495–97, while the second part (fols. 64–159) dates from ca. 1494–97. Forster III appears to date from ca. 1490–97.

Leic. = Codex Leicester (formerly, Leicester 699, Holkham Hall; formerly called the Codex Hammer, when it was owned by Armand Hammer), Collection of Bill and Melinda Gates, Seattle, Washington. The codex dates from ca. 1508–12. See cat. no. 114 in the exhibition catalogue.

Libro di Pittura = C. Urb. = Codex Urbinas Latinus 1270, Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana (see C. Urb. above).

Ma. I, Ma. II = Codex Madrid I (8937), Codex Madrid II (8936), Biblioteca Nacional, Madrid. Codex Madrid I dates from ca. 1493–99. Codex Madrid II bears the dates 1491, 1493, and other material in this volume seems to date ca. 1503–5.

Paris Ms. A = Manuscript A (2172; 2185), Institut de France, Paris. Sometime between ca. 1840 and 1847, the second part of this manuscript (fols. 81–114) was stolen by Count Guglielmo Libri, from whom it was bought by Lord Ashburnham in 1875 (designated as Ms. Ashburnham 1875/2). This part was acquired by the Bibliothèque Nationale as Ms. B.N. It. 2038 around 1888, and was then restituted to the Institut de France. Fols. 54, 65–80 were probably lost at the time of Libri's theft. The modern reconstitution of the two parts of the manuscript postdates the publication of the first edition of the famous anthology of Leonardo's notes by Jean Paul Richter (Richter 1883). In the early Leonardo literature, the second part of Paris Ms. A is referred to as Ms. Ashburnham II. In the later literature this second part is also designated as Ms. B.N. 2038 (the citation used in Richter 1939), while the recent Leonardo literature presents the foliation of the fully reconstituted manuscript. The first part of Paris Ms. A is dated 1492, but was begun earlier, ca. 1490–91.

Paris Ms. B = Manuscript B (2173; 2184), Institut de France, Paris. The second part of this manuscript (fols. 91–100) was also stolen ca. 1840–47 by Count Guglielmo Libri, and has the same history as the second part of Paris Ms. A, until it was acquired by the Bibliothèque Nationale as Ms. B.N. It. 2037, and then restituted to the Institut de France. When in Lord Ashburnham's collections, this part of Paris Ms. B was known as Ms. Ashburnham 1875/1. Fols. 3, 84–87 of Paris Ms. B were probably lost at the time of Libri's theft. The parts of Paris Ms. B were also reconstituted after the publication of the first edition of Richter's famous anthology. In the early Leonardo literature the second part of Paris Ms. B is referred to as Ashburnham I. In the later literature this second part is also designated as Ms. B.N. 2037, while the recent Leonardo literature presents the foliation of the fully reconstituted manuscript. Paris Ms. B dates from ca. 1486–90.

Paris Ms. C = Manuscript C (2174), Institut de France, Paris. This is dated 1490, 1491.

Paris Ms. D = Manuscript D (2175), Institut de France, Paris. The notebook seems to have been produced ca. 1508.

Paris Ms. E = Manuscript E (2176), Institut de France, Paris. Fols. 80–96 of this manuscript were lost probably at the time of Libri's theft ca. 1840–47. The manuscript seems to date from 1513–14.

Paris Ms. F = Manuscript F (2177), Institut de France, Paris. This is dated 1508.

Paris Ms. G = Manuscript G (2178), Institut de France, Paris. The material probably dates from 1510 to 1515.

Paris Ms. H = Manuscript H (2179), Institut de France, Paris. The firs part (fols. 1–48) is dated March 1494, the second part (fols. 49–94) is dated January and February 1494, and the third part (fols. 95–142) is dated 1493, 1494.

Paris Ms. I = Manuscript I (2180), Institut de France, Paris. The first part (fols. 1–48) probably dates ca. 1497–99, while the second part (fols. 49–139) from ca. 1497.

Paris Ms. K = Manuscript K (2181), Institut de France, Paris. The first part (fols. 1–48) and second part (fols. 49–80) seem to date from ca. 1503–4 (and possibly 1505), while the third part (fols. 81–128) appears to be from ca. 1506–7 (and possibly 1508).

Paris Ms. L = Manuscript L (2182), Institut de France, Paris. Ms. L probably dates ca. 1497–1502 (and possibly 1504).

Paris Ms. M = Manuscript M (2183), Institut de France, Paris. The majority of the notebook probably dates from ca. 1498–1500, but was probably begun ca. 1495.

Tr. = Codex Trivulzianus N 2162, Castello Sforzesco, Milan. This codex dates ca. 1487–90.

All of Leonardo's manuscripts are now available in facsimile reproductions published by Giunti Barbèra–Giunti Gruppo Editoriale (the Giunti Publishing Group), Florence, under the direction of Carlo Pedretti. Earlier partial or full facsimile editions are listed in the Bibliography under the manuscript name.
