This anonymous 18th-century Italian landscape drawing, created with red chalk on paper, depicts a sloping hillside adorned with trees and a church in the distance. The artist's loose, gestural lines capture the natural beauty of the scene, with emphasis on the textural quality of the foliage. This landscape drawing, a study in composition, is characteristic of Italian landscape art, showcasing the picturesque features of the natural world.
