The emphasis on curves and plant motifs was typical of Leonardo da Vinci's early works. The drawing is likely to be the work of Leonardo da Vinci during his time in andrea del Verrocchio's studio, and may have been a series of bas-reliefs bas-painted on the subject of ancient warriors for King Matthias I of Hungary.
