Leonardo da Vinci's "Angel in the Flesh" is hanging this week at the Italian Cultural Institute in Westwood, the drawing's first public showing ever in the Americas. The piece used to reside in the royal collection at Windsor Castle until cast out by Queen Victoria, reportedly in a purge of so-called pornographic art. Times art critic Christopher Knight has another theory: "'Angel in the Flesh' is one ugly drawing." See for yourself through Saturday.
