This drawing by Giovanni Battista Tinti, titled "Suffer Little Children to Come unto Me", depicts a scene from the New Testament. Christ is shown standing on a raised platform with a crowd of people surrounding him. The artist uses a dramatic and expressive style to capture the energy of the event. The artwork is a preparatory drawing for a larger painting, demonstrating the artist's process of composition and development. It is a testament to the power and impact of religious narratives in art. This drawing is housed in The Art Institute of Chicago.
