Two Studies of a Man 

Remigio Cantagallina's "Two Studies of a Man" are a pair of pen and brown ink drawings on paper. The artist, born in 1582 and active in the 17th century, captures the figure of a man in two different poses. The figure on the left is shown from behind, while the figure on the right is seated. The artist's use of hatching and shading creates a sense of volume and depth, emphasizing the clothing folds and the man's posture. These detailed studies serve as preparatory sketches for larger paintings, showcasing Cantagallina's skill in depicting the human form.
