The Assumption of the Virgin

Francesco Rosselli

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Assumption of the Virgin by Francesco Rosselli: Black and white drawing of people in robes gathered around a low platform in the center. The figures are standing and sitting; several are on their knees with hands raised. The figures are wearing long robes; some are bearded. The low platform around which they gather is on a raised surface; below are scattered stones and small rocks. Behind the group on the left a large drape or cloth; on the right a city on the horizon with buildings including domes and towers. The sky has clouds.
