Drie studies van knielende engelen met een toorts 1690s

Marco Antonio Franceschini's "Drie studies van knielende engelen met een toorts" is a study of three angels in various poses, each holding a torch. This red chalk drawing is characteristic of Franceschini's style, which combined elements of the Baroque and the Rococo periods. The drawing shows the artist's keen eye for anatomy and his ability to capture the graceful movements of his subjects. The angels' wings are rendered with a delicate precision, adding a sense of otherworldliness to the work. This drawing is a testament to Franceschini's skill as a draftsman and his deep understanding of the human form.
