Michelangelo's "Satyr's Head" is a striking red chalk drawing depicting a satyr's head in profile, rendered with incredible detail and a sense of realism. The satyr's features are meticulously depicted, showcasing the artist's mastery of anatomy and his ability to capture emotion through subtle variations in line and shading. The drawing, housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, is a testament to Michelangelo's talent as a draftsman and his fascination with the human form, a recurring theme throughout his career.
