"Saint George" is a drawing by Croatian sculptor Ivan Mestrovic, known for his monumental works. The image, rendered in charcoal, depicts the legendary figure of Saint George, slaying a dragon, a symbol of evil. Mestrovic's portrayal is bold and dynamic, capturing the struggle between good and evil, a common theme in art history. The artist's simplified forms and expressive lines, reminiscent of Art Nouveau, contribute to the artwork's powerful impact. This drawing, while a preliminary study, reveals Mestrovic's profound skill in capturing movement and emotion.
