Actually, that was a common practice at the time. The master would 
outline the work, paint some of the difficult parts, to be completed by 
his apprentices.

These works are often known as "from the studio of" and are responsible 
for some of difficulty the art world has in attribution. If Di Vinci 
painted the outline and some of the work (say 20%) and his apprentices 
did the rest, is it an authentic Di Vinci?
