The portrait of a man in red chalk (circa 1510) in the Biblioteca Reale Turin is widely though not universally accepted as a self portrait of Leonardo da Vinci. It is thought that Leonardo da Vinci drew this self-portrait at about the age of 60. The portrait has been extensively reproduced and has become an iconic representation of Leonardo as a polymath or Renaissance Man. Despite this some historians and scholars disagree as to the true identity of the sitter.
