Konsolstatue eines sitzenden Kardinals 

This pen and ink drawing, "Konsolstatue eines sitzenden Kardinals", by Luca Cambiaso, shows a seated cardinal in a grand pose, possibly intended for a monumental sculpture. The cardinal is depicted with an elaborate hat and robe, holding an open book. Cambiaso, an Italian artist active in the late 16th century, is known for his dynamic figures and expressive lines, evident in this work. The study demonstrates the artist's keen interest in anatomy and drapery, and its focus on the figure's posture and gesture suggests a preparatory drawing for a larger project.
