Pietro da Cortona's "Sketch" is a masterful drawing that showcases the artist's skill in capturing movement and emotion. The composition is dynamic, with a central figure reaching out towards a prone figure while others gather around in a flurry of activity. The use of hatching and shading creates a sense of depth and volume, giving the figures a sense of weight and presence. This drawing is a testament to Cortona's talent as a draftsman, and it offers a glimpse into the creative process of one of the leading artists of the Baroque era.
