Titled "Study on water evaporation, writings from the Codex Forster III" this artwork is housed in the prestigious Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Dating back to the High Renaissance period, specifically around 1493-1505, da Vinci's study delves into the intricate process of water evaporation.
