Pietro Testa

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of a religious scene. The Virgin Mary with long hair wearing a long dress sits on a cloud. Three men in religious outfits intercede to her. One on the left holds a shepherd's staff. The second, on the right, holds the Virgin's hand. The third stands behind the second. A cherub or angel on a cloud looks down. Three victims of the plague; a woman on the ground with her head on the lap of a man; a man lying on his back; and another on the ground on his side. There are buildings and mountains in the background.
