Ludovico Carracci's "Sitzender Mönch, eine vor ihm Kniende segnend" is a delicate drawing depicting a seated monk with a halo, possibly Saint Anthony, blessing a kneeling figure. Created during the late 16th century, this artwork showcases the artist's mastery of depicting light and shadow, emphasizing the solemnity of the scene through subtle shading. The drawing's simplicity allows for a focused interpretation of the subject matter, making it a notable example of Carracci's skill in creating evocative, intimate moments of faith. The piece currently resides in the Städel Museum, Frankfurt.
