I knew Leonardo had a home on the Loire where are housed a large number of his machines and mechanical realizations but not what painting he did while in France.  This show has only a few Leonardos but they are housed in the Italian Embassy, the Hôtel de Boisgelin, a.k.a. Hôtel de La Rochefoucauld-Doudeauville at 47, rue de Varenne in the 7th, which is a stunning hôtel particulier with a lovely garden out back.  The show is on until November 20th and admission is free - 11-5.
