"made on August 7, 1482. On April 25, 1483, Prior Bartolomeo Scorlione and the Confraternity contracted Leonardo da Vinci, and the brothers Ambrogio and Evangelista de Predis to provide the painted panels for the altarpiece. The contract was not explicit about what each artist was to do. Leonardo was referred to in the contract as ""Master"". Ambrogio de Predis was also a painter. It is presumed that Evangelista de Predis was a gilder and assisted in preparing the colours. The details of the painting, colouring and gilding are set out in the contract. The central panel was to be a"
"with this interpretation, placing the Louvre painting prior to 1481 and the London painting from 1483. The theory that is most commonly used to explain the existence of the two paintings is that Leonardo painted the Louvre ""Virgin of the Rocks"" to fulfil the commission, giving it a date of 1483, and that he then sold it to another client, and painted the London version as a replacement. In line with this theory, it is hypothesised that the Louvre painting was sold in the late 1480s, after some haggling over the final payment. The London painting was commenced in perhaps"

In 1524 and 1576 ""The Virgin of the Rocks"" in the Chapel of the Immaculate Conception, presumably the London version, was invoked against the plague. In 1576, the altarpiece was removed from the chapel, which was demolished.

It has been known since the 18th century, when it was probably in the collection of John Smith Barry (grandfather of Arthur Smith-Barry, 1st Baron Barrymore) at Marbury Hall near Northwich in Cheshire, UK.

These are both in the National Gallery, London. The ""Virgin of the Rocks"" in the Louvre is considered by most art historians to be the earlier of the two and dates from around 1483–1486.

It is a painting made for display in a home rather than a church. It is close to compositions by Titian's former master Giovanni Bellini, especially, when reversed, one of 1509 in the Detroit Institute of Arts, and has been seen as a challenge to the much older master, by taking on a characteristic compositional formula of his. The style is much indebted to Giorgione, and it was often attributed to"

In his paintings such as the ""Mona Lisa"" (c.1503-1517) and ""Virgin of the Rocks"" (1483-1486) (the earliest complete work fully of his hand), he used light and shade with such subtlety that, for want of a better word, it became known as Leonardo's ""sfumato"" or ""smoke"". He exhibited a revolutionary use of colour by defining the transition between figures by colour modulation instead of by actual lines. His work invited the viewer into a mysterious world of shifting shadows, chaotic mountains and whirling torrents."
