The Holy Family by Francesco Amato: A black and white drawing depicting three figures. The central figure, a woman wearing a head covering and robe, sits and looks down. She holds a small child in her lap, the child sits on her left leg and touches her arm. A smaller figure, likely an older man with a bald head, sits on a ledge behind and to the left. The man holds his head up with his hand. The woman and children are in the foreground, the man in the background. The scene appears to be outdoors. The drawing is highly detailed with shading and texture. The overall composition is intimate, with figures closely grouped.
