This 16th-century drawing by Agostino Carracci is a study in red chalk for a larger composition, possibly a painting. The artwork depicts a nude male figure, likely a god or hero, emerging from the clouds. The figure appears to be lifting a large object, possibly a rock or a sphere. Two figures, one of them a woman, are partially visible in the background. This drawing exemplifies Carracci’s mastery of anatomy and composition, showcasing the influence of the Renaissance masters. This artwork is a testament to the artist's ongoing exploration of human form and his exploration of classical mythology through figurative art.
