Apotheosis of Classical Divinities 18th-19th century

This drawing, "Apotheosis of Classical Divinities," is a pen and brown wash study by Italian artist Giuliano Traballesi, dated to the 18th-19th century. It depicts a scene of classical deities, most likely from Roman mythology, ascending into the heavens on clouds. The figures are rendered in a dynamic composition and demonstrate Traballesi's masterful skill in draftsmanship and light and shadow. This drawing is a testament to Traballesi's artistic talent and the enduring fascination of artists with classical themes.
