This drawing by Peter Paul Rubens, a prominent figure of the Flemish Baroque, depicts two bearded heads in profile, one facing left and the other right. The piece, likely a study for a larger work, showcases Rubens' masterful use of line to capture the intricate details of human anatomy and expression. The dynamic interplay of light and shadow further enhances the three-dimensionality of the figures. This study serves as a testament to Rubens' exceptional draftsmanship and his profound understanding of the human form.
