Staande vrouw 1580 - 1620

"Staande vrouw" is a graphite drawing created by Francesco Vanni between 1580 and 1620. The drawing depicts a standing woman, possibly a study for a larger composition. Vanni, a Florentine artist, was known for his refined and delicate style. This drawing, now in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies his meticulous approach to capturing the human form. The piece's simplicity and focus on the figure's anatomy highlights Vanni's skill as a draftsman, demonstrating the importance of preparatory drawings in the artistic process.
