The Baptism of Christ by Cesare Pollini. A sepia-toned sketch on aged paper. A group of people, some with halos drawn around their heads, are gathered around a central figure with one hand raised. Most figures are faceless or lacking detail. A tree appears on far left. The background has scattered red pencil marks. A signature appears on the bottom left. The overall composition is loose and sketch-like.
