A study of Leonardo’s dated 1473 drawing found two inscriptions attributed to him: the one on the front is mirrored, while the one on the back reads normally. Researchers conclude that Leonardo wrote the first with his left hand and the second with his right; this shows that he used both hands, but does not prove they were equally skilled.
