This one was perhaps a little tricky - only three correct answers. The first came from the winner of the previous round - a mighty impressive feat. The view is from Giuseppe Zocchi's (d.1767) Florence, a View of the Arno taken from the Porta a San Niccolo. The clue of course was that this was a 'Leonardo special'; he worked in Florence and had a scheme for diverting the Arno.
