Wedstrijd tussen Apollo en Marsyas 1502 - 1532

"Wedstrijd tussen Apollo en Marsyas" is a 16th century drawing by the Italian Renaissance artist Ugo da Carpi. This drawing depicts the mythological contest between the Greek god Apollo and the satyr Marsyas. Apollo, depicted with a lyre, is standing triumphantly over a seated Marsyas, whose double pipes lay discarded in the background. The drawing, executed in black chalk on brown paper, is characteristic of Carpi's style, which is known for its expressive lines and attention to detail.
