EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artwork by the renowned Italian artist Raphael. Titled "Landscape Sketch with a brief Study of the Virgin Mary's head turned to left" this piece was created between 1500 and 1504 using pen and brown ink over metalpoint on white paper. Measuring at 11.5x13.2 cm, it is currently housed in the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. The image captures an exquisite landscape scene, characteristic of Raphael's high Renaissance style. The artist skillfully combines his mastery of landscapes with a study of the Virgin Mary's profile as she gazes towards her left side. This delicate sketch demonstrates Raphael's attention to detail and his ability to capture emotions through subtle expressions. The inclusion of baby Jesus further enhances the composition, emphasizing Mary's role as both mother and spiritual figure. Through this drawing, Raphael explores various elements such as light, shadow, and perspective while showcasing his profound understanding of human anatomy. This print not only offers us a glimpse into one of Raphael's lesser-known works but also allows us to appreciate his artistic process through preliminary sketches like this one. It serves as a testament to his exceptional talent and enduring legacy in Western art history.
