Allegorical Figure

Bernardo Strozzi

Cleveland Museum of Art

The drawing depicts a woman with curly hair wearing a draped garment. Her right arm is bent at the elbow, and she holds an object in her right hand. Her left arm is extended out to her side. The woman's upper body is bare, with her right breast exposed. The garment appears to be wrapped around her body, with folds visible. The drawing is rendered in a mix of dark and light shades. The background features faint sketches of architectural elements and other indistinct shapes. The overall appearance suggests an old, possibly Baroque-style artwork. The drawing is titled "Allegorical Figure" and attributed to Bernardo Strozzi.
