Confirmation 1786

"Confirmation" is a 1786 drawing by French artist Jean Hippolyte Bardin. This piece, executed in a brown wash, depicts a scene likely inspired by biblical text. It showcases a group of figures, some seated at a table, others standing in the background, and one woman kneeling before a figure seated in a throne-like chair. The artist uses soft, delicate lines to capture the subtle details of the clothing and gestures of the figures, contributing to the overall serene atmosphere of the scene.
