Den hellige Frans af Assisi indvier nye munke? 1619 - 1700

This anonymous drawing depicts Saint Francis of Assisi inducting new monks. Executed in brown ink on paper, the drawing shows St. Francis in the center, placing a cowl on the head of a kneeling man. The work is a testament to the importance of the Franciscan order in 17th-century art and religious practice. This drawing is part of the collection of the SMK – Statens Museum for Kunst, Denmark.
