Here's an interesting article written for the Telegraph by Andrew Graham-Dixon on Leonardo da Vinci's two versions of 'Virgin of the Rocks' - at the Louvre and National Gallery.
The two paintings will be hung next to each other for the first time at the forthcoming National Gallery exhibition 'Leonardo da Vinci: Painter at the Court of Milan' - the most ambitious Leonardo exhibition ever staged. Exhibition details here.
