"A Miraculous Cure" is a preparatory drawing for a larger artwork, created by the Italian artist Bartolomeo Cesi in the 16th or 17th century. The drawing, housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, depicts a scene of a miraculous healing, likely a biblical narrative. Cesi utilized a grid system to map out the composition, suggesting his meticulous approach to his art. The lines and shading of the drawing demonstrate his skilled hand and mastery of the human form.
