Luca Signorelli's "Head of a Man in Profile" is a striking example of Italian Renaissance drawing. This silverpoint drawing, created in the 1490s, captures the subtle details and expressive qualities of a man's face in profile. The artist's meticulous attention to anatomical accuracy and his use of delicate shading contribute to the work's realism. This drawing serves as a testament to Signorelli's skill as a draftsman and his ability to convey human emotion through line and shadow.
