Artwork description

Watermark: AS with Fleur de Lys

Signed: PA.Novelli.

Numbered: 3982

A very typical drawing by the famous Venetian illustrator from the end of the eighteenth century. A recognizable characteristic of Pietro Antonio Novelli is the morphology of the Head which has a very strong porcelain like illusion, a characteristic that also applies to the studies of the hands and feet. These studies probably served as prototypes which he would use later in the execution for his canvases or his etchings.
