Head of a Man with Closed Eyes 1563 - 1610

"Head of a Man with Closed Eyes" is a charcoal drawing on paper created by Francesco Vanni in the late 16th or early 17th century. The drawing depicts a man's head in profile, his eyes closed and his hand resting on his chin. The use of charcoal creates a soft, expressive quality that emphasizes the man's pensive mood. The drawing is a testament to Vanni's mastery of draftsmanship and his ability to capture the nuances of human emotion. The work is now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
