"Death of Saint Joseph" is a drawing by Venetian artist Gaspare Diziani (1689-1767) now housed in the Art Institute of Chicago. This pen-and-brown ink drawing depicts the death of Joseph, the foster father of Jesus. The composition features a group of figures, including Joseph himself, who is surrounded by angels and mourners. The work is characteristic of Diziani's style, which was marked by its elegance and grace. The artist's draftsmanship is evident in the flowing lines and expressive poses of the figures, and the overall composition is both dramatic and poignant.
