Antonio da Correggio's "Head of a Sleeping Man" is a red chalk drawing, showcasing the artist's masterful skill in capturing human form. The piece, dated n.d., features a detailed and expressive study of a sleeping man's face, with a focus on the subtle nuances of his features. The loose, flowing lines of the drawing create a sense of movement and life, even in the subject's slumber. This work is currently housed at The Art Institute of Chicago, a testament to Correggio's impact on Renaissance art.
