"Study of the Figure of Agnello Brunelleschi" is a pencil drawing by English artist William Blake created around 1826. The drawing is a study of the figure of Agnello Brunelleschi, a character from Dante's *Inferno*, and showcases Blake's characteristic expressive lines and dynamic composition. The sketch captures the dramatic pose and intense expression of Brunelleschi, a sinner condemned to be transformed into a serpent. The drawing is currently housed at The Art Institute of Chicago. This artwork is a valuable example of Blake's artistic process and his interest in Dante's work.
