According to his latest biography - This is not Leonardo da vinci, by Riccardo Magnani.- it is Leonardo himself. You can gather it from two physical defect of the artist: a xanthelasma in his/her eyes and the arthrogenous ganglion on the right hand. Plus you need to consider his Neoplatonic heritage, where the sacred marriage and the androgynous played an important role.
