"Upturned Head of Saint Dominic," is a red chalk drawing by Lorenzo Sabbatini, a prominent Italian artist of the late Renaissance. The drawing depicts the profile of Saint Dominic, the founder of the Dominican Order, with his head turned upwards in a gesture of devotion. The detail of the anatomy and expression of the saint are characteristic of Sabbatini's style, showcasing his mastery in capturing a moment of intense spiritual contemplation. This piece, now housed at The Art Institute of Chicago, is a testament to the artist's keen observation of human form and emotion.
