The Conversion of St. Paul

Lelio Orsi

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned drawing on aged paper with rough, uneven edges. The artwork depicts multiple sketches. At the top, three figures with outstretched arms and flowing hair are shown; the left and right figures appear to be sitting on or near clouds, while the central figure seems to be floating or falling. Below them, a chaotic scene shows a man falling off a horse and other figures and horses in disarray. A tree and distant buildings are faintly outlined in the background. The paper has visible signs of wear, including tape residue at the top.
