Jacques Callot after Matteo Rosselli

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a scene showing four figures around a bed attending to a prostrate figure. Above them, another figure appears mid-air. To the left, two more figures stand watching or gesturing. The bed is surrounded by draping material, and the drawing is richly detailed with hatching and line work.
