Benedetto Montagna's "A Young Man with an Arrow" (c. 1510) is a fine example of Italian Renaissance engraving. This black and white print depicts a young man standing in a landscape, holding a bow and arrow, while partially draped in a cloak. The artist's signature is visible at the top, and the detailed anatomy of the figure highlights the influence of the High Renaissance. This work is housed at The Art Institute of Chicago, showcasing the breadth of their collection.
