Two sketches of flying figures and garlands 1710 - 1780

Francesco La Marra's "Two sketches of flying figures and garlands" is a quick study for a larger work, likely a fresco or a ceiling painting. The artist, who worked between 1710 and 1780, captured the dynamic movement of figures in flight through gestural lines and swirling clouds. The sketches are a testament to La Marra's skill in visualizing complex compositions and capturing the essence of movement. These drawings are not finished artworks in themselves but are valuable for understanding the artist's creative process.
