A Sketch for a Fresco 

"A Sketch for a Fresco" is a preliminary drawing for a larger mural by Hungarian painter Károly Lotz. The drawing depicts a central figure, likely a goddess, being draped in a cloth by two attendants. The scene is set in a lush, tropical garden with stylized foliage and fantastical winged creatures. The composition is framed by a half-circle, hinting at its intended use as a fresco. This sketch demonstrates Lotz's meticulous attention to detail and mastery of draftsmanship, characteristic of his later work.
