Putti harvesting wine and playing with a billy goat 1499 - 1546

This 16th-century drawing, attributed to an anonymous artist, depicts a lively scene of putti (cherubic figures) engaged in a harvest. The putti are shown harvesting grapes from a vine-laden tree, while others frolic playfully with a billy goat in the foreground. The background features a charming landscape with distant buildings, creating a sense of depth and context for the scene. This work exemplifies the playful and whimsical nature of Renaissance art, often capturing moments of childhood innocence and delight.
