This red chalk drawing by Italian Baroque artist Giovanni Lanfranco, titled "Putti and a Young Satyr at Play," depicts a group of cherubs, or putti, and a young satyr engaged in playful activities. The artist uses subtle shading to convey the figures' forms and creates a sense of depth and movement. The drawing showcases Lanfranco's mastery of the human figure and his ability to capture the essence of youthful exuberance. This artwork is a fine example of the artist's style and is a testament to his influence on the development of Baroque art.
