2 works

This is a drawing of a group of angelic figures surrounding a central figure. The drawing features angelic figures depicted in a classical style with flowing robes and feathered wings, gathered around a central, reclining figure. The scene depicts a moment of care or protection, with the figures intertwined and creating a sense of movement. The drawing is rendered with a subtle use of sepia tones, primarily browns and grays that provide a sense of depth and contour. The strokes are fluid and sketchy, with a dynamic and expressive quality that captures the emotional essence of the scene. The background is left largely unmarked, keeping the focus on the figures and their interactions.

Saint Mary Magdalene Lifted by Angels

Tiepolo, Giovanni Battista

The image shows a group of figures, both human and a cow, in a rural setting. One person is seated, holding a child, with most of their body shown. Another figure is leaning on a staff, facing downward, with short wavy hair and simple clothing. A third figure stands behind them. A cow with horns is on the left. The scene is sketched in brown ink wash, depicting a barn-like environment with few details.
