This drawing by Italian Baroque artist Andrea Sacchi, housed at the Städel Museum, depicts Saint Anthony of Padua preaching to a congregation of clergymen. The composition is a study for a larger painting, focusing on the figures and their placement in the architectural space. The depiction of Saint Anthony's sermon emphasizes the importance of religious discourse during the Baroque era. Sacchi, known for his refined and classical approach, masterfully rendered the figures and the architectural details of the interior setting, capturing the solemnity of the scene. The use of brown ink and washes creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, enhancing the overall sense of realism.
