This is amazingly beautiful. If it were drawn as isometric projection instead of perspective projection, it would be more in the style of Leonardo da Vinci.

Interestingly, Leonardo may have experimented with binocular vs. monocular perspective for at least one alternative version of his _Mona Lisa_:

which makes one wonder if there are instances of his having used other perspectives in his drawings (cabinet for drawings for furniture for his home or workshop for a cabinetmaker, or cavalier for a map/diagram for military planning), and wish that the entirety of his oeuvre were available in a digital format like to the Corbis CD-ROM Leonardo's rendering of the Codex Leceister:
