La Vierge à l’Enfant adorée par des évêques, des moines et des femmes

Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, 1735/1740

This is a drawing of a group of figures gathered around a central figure holding a child. The drawing is sketched with sepia ink, featuring a loosely rendered group of figures, with the central figure seated holding a small child. To the left and right of the central figure are several additional figures, some with faint outlines of garments suggesting flowing robes. A tall staff-like object rises on the left side of the image. The figures are composed using light washes and expressive line work. In the background, additional faint pencil sketches suggest more figures or decorative elements.
