Twee kinderen 1632 - 1664

"Twee kinderen" (Two Children), a drawing created between 1632 and 1664 by Girolamo Rossi (1627-1669), depicts two cherubic figures, one pulling a curtain while the other reclines on a cloud. This artwork showcases Rossi's talent for capturing youthful innocence and the delicate folds of drapery, hallmarks of his artistic style. The drawing's intimate scale, measuring just 196 mm by 264 mm, emphasizes its focus on the details of these celestial beings. This piece, likely an illustration for a larger work or a study, exemplifies the art of drawing in the 17th century.
