This drawing by Pellegrino Tibaldi, a prominent Italian Mannerist artist of the 16th century, is a study for a decorative element likely intended for a larger architectural project. It features a central shield held by two young men, while below, two female figures with tails, possibly harpies, flank a faun mask. The work showcases Tibaldi's interest in classical mythology and his skill in rendering intricate details, characteristic of the Mannerist style. This drawing, currently housed in the Städel Museum, offers a glimpse into the creative process of a master artist during the Renaissance.
