Correggio

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows two sketches on paper, one on the left and one on the right. The left sketch depicts a nude man lying on his back with his right arm behind his head and his left arm on his stomach. The man is drawn with orange or reddish-brown colored pencil on light brown paper and appears to be on his back with both legs bent. The right sketch shows a draped female figure with long hair drawn with orange or reddish-brown colored pencil on light brown paper. The woman appears to be standing with her arms raised and is drawn in front of architectural features, including columns and a building with a pediment. The sketches appear to be study drawings and are likely from the 16th century. The overall color of the paper is light brown with darker brown spots. The background of the image is white.
