Drie Gratiën 1610

"Drie Gratiën" is a 1610 drawing by an anonymous artist, depicting the three Graces, goddesses of beauty, charm, and pleasure in Greek mythology. The drawing is executed in black chalk and red chalk, with subtle shading and a focus on the female form. This study of the Graces is a testament to the enduring fascination with classical mythology and the pursuit of beauty in the art of the Dutch Golden Age. The drawing's intimate scale and delicate handling make it a beautiful and poignant work of art.
