Leonardo da Vinci's *Five Caricature Heads* is a pen and ink drawing that showcases the artist’s masterful understanding of human anatomy. Created in 1490, the drawing features five exaggerated heads, each with distinctive features, capturing a range of expressions and emotions. The work is a prime example of da Vinci's interest in studying the human form and his talent for capturing both realism and caricature. The drawing, now housed in the Galleria dell'Accademia in Florence, is a testament to da Vinci's enduring legacy as a visionary artist and anatomist.
