Print from Drawing Book c. 1610 - 1620

Luca Ciamberlano's "Print from Drawing Book" (c. 1610-1620) is a detailed study of the human face, focusing specifically on the eyes, nose, and lips. This print, likely a page from his drawing book, demonstrates Ciamberlano's keen observation of anatomy and skill in rendering the subtle nuances of facial expressions. The artist's meticulous hatching technique gives a sense of volume and texture to the features, capturing the delicate interplay of light and shadow across the skin. This print is a valuable example of the artistic study of anatomy that was prevalent in the Baroque era.
