Abstract

It is well known that Leonardo da Vinci made several drawings of the human male anatomy. The early drawings (before 1500) were incorrect in identifying the origin of semen, where he followed accepted teaching of his time. It is widely thought that he did not correct this mistake, a view that is reflected in several biographies. In fact, he made a later drawing (after 1500) in which the description of the anatomy is remarkably accurate and must have been based on careful dissection. In addition to highlighting this fact, acknowledged previously in only one other source, this article reviews the background to Leonardo's knowledge of the relevant anatomy.

摘要

众所周知，列奥纳多·达·芬奇绘制了几幅男性人体解剖图。早期的画作（1500年之前）在确定精液的起源方面是错误的，当时他遵循的是那个时代公认的学说。人们普遍认为他没有纠正这个错误，这种观点在几本传记中都有体现。事实上，他后来（1500年之后）绘制了一幅解剖图，其中对解剖结构的描述非常准确，肯定是基于仔细的解剖。除了强调这一此前仅在另一处资料中被提及的事实外，本文还回顾了列奥纳多了解相关解剖学知识的背景。
