Apostel en vier engelen 1609 - 1660

"Apostel en vier engelen," created by Giovanni Battista Vanni between 1609 and 1660, is a black and white drawing depicting a scene with four angels surrounding a central figure. The drawing features a dramatic composition with the angels positioned in a dynamic, almost chaotic arrangement around the central figure, who is partially hidden behind the angels' drapery. This dramatic use of light and shadow, characteristic of Baroque art, creates a powerful and captivating visual experience. The drawing's detailed rendering of the figures and their flowing garments highlights Vanni's exceptional skill as an artist.
