"Perspectival study of the Adoration of the Magi" is an incomplete early renaissance sketch and study by Leonardo da Vinci. Created around 1481, the painting was commissioned by the Augustinian monks of San Donato in Scopeto, Florence, but Leonardo left for Milan before completing it. The work primarily consists of a detailed ink underdrawing on paper, showcasing his mastery of perspective and composition. Since 1670, it has been housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, serving as a valuable glimpse into Leonardo's early studies and artistic process during the Early renaissance period.
