This red chalk drawing, "Head in Three-Quarter Profile (recto); Standing Young Man Pointing Left and Sketches of Feet, Arm (verso)", is a study by the Venetian artist Giorgione, created sometime before his death in 1510. The drawing is characterized by a delicate touch and shows the artist's masterful ability to capture the essence of human form. The recto depicts the head of a young man in profile, while the verso features a standing figure pointing left, along with several sketches of feet and an arm. These sketches highlight Giorgione's interest in anatomy and his dedication to capturing the complexities of the human body.
