Head of a Child n.d.

Domenico Peruzzini's "Head of a Child" is a masterful example of Renaissance drawing. This intricate study of a young face, rendered in brown ink and chalk, showcases the artist's keen attention to detail and understanding of human anatomy. The child's features are delicately portrayed, emphasizing the subtle curves and contours of the face, while the use of cross-hatching creates a sense of volume and depth. This captivating drawing, now housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, is a testament to Peruzzini's skills as a draftsman.
