Leonardi had been a student of Antonio Tempesta, and was responsible for the plates in 'Uccelliera', an ornithological collection published in 1622 and which was curated by Cassiano and the editor Pietro Olina, and printed by Francesco Villamena. His plates illustrating the citrus family were engraved by Cornelius Bloemaert for use in the Jesuit scholar from Siena, Giovanni Battista Ferrari's book 'Hesperides'.
