Arno itinerary: Florence to Pisa with distances
Schematic map naming towns down the river with mileage figures
A faint red-chalk and ink map schematises the Arno's course from Florence down to Pisa. Along it Leonardo strings the towns Firenze, Lastra, Signa, Malmantile, Montelupo, Empoli, San Miniato, Torre a San Romano, Pontedera, Cascina and Pisa, with numbers marking the distances between them. The sheet belongs to Leonardo's survey of the Arno valley noted in the codex.
