This drawing, "Krönung des Heiligen Borromäus" ("The Coronation of Saint Charles Borromeo") by the Italian Baroque artist Carlo Maratti, depicts the saint ascending to heaven, surrounded by angels and cherubs. Maratti's signature style is evident in the subtle shading and delicate lines that bring depth and movement to the figures. The central figure of Saint Charles, with his upturned gaze and outstretched hand, embodies the spiritual transcendence of the scene. The composition, featuring a central figure surrounded by celestial beings, is characteristic of religious imagery of the time, echoing the grandeur and symbolism of the Baroque period.
