This anonymous drawing, titled "Saint Adoring the Madonna and Child," showcases a devotional scene from the 17th century. The composition features a central figure of the Madonna and Child surrounded by a host of cherubs, with a saint kneeling in adoration below. The delicate lines and airy clouds suggest a heavenly setting, emphasizing the spiritual significance of the scene. The drawing's small size and subtle detail would have been appreciated by both private collectors and religious institutions during the Baroque period.
