This is a preliminary drawing by Palma il Giovane, a 16th century Italian artist. The drawing depicts God the Father in the upper portion of the page, surrounded by two cherubs. The lower half of the page depicts Saint John the Evangelist, identifiable by the eagle at his feet, as well as a second saint. The drawing features the heads of two donors, possibly suggesting a commission. The drawing is a study for a larger work, possibly a fresco or an altarpiece. It offers a glimpse into the artist's creative process, demonstrating the preliminary steps involved in creating a monumental artwork.
