Mystic Marriage of Saint Catherine with Saint Jerome

Francesco Vanni

National Gallery of Art

This is a sketch of three figures' upper bodies and faces. The central figure is a woman holding a child, who is facing left. On the right side is another figure looking at the child, and below them is a third figure in a dynamic pose with an extended arm. The figures are drawn with delicate, flowing lines on textured brownish paper.
