Bust of an angel 

This drawing by Italian artist Ludovico Carracci is a study of an angel's bust. The delicate and expressive lines of the drawing capture the subject's youthful features and the ethereal quality of the figure. Carracci, a prominent figure of the Bolognese school, was known for his mastery of drawing, which he used to create preparatory sketches for his paintings. This drawing exemplifies the artist's attention to detail and ability to convey emotion through line. It is currently on display in the Städel Museum.
