Figurkomposition omkring en tronende, læsende pave 17th century

This pen and wash drawing, created by Jürgen Ovens in the 17th century, depicts a seated Pope surrounded by figures. The Pope is reading a book, while a kneeling figure stands before him. The composition is dynamic, with the figures arranged in a semi-circle around the Pope, creating a sense of movement and energy. This piece is a study for a larger composition, demonstrating Ovens' ability to capture the human form with precision and grace. It is housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
