Adamo Scultori after Giulio Romano

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a scene featuring a dynamic chariot being pulled by two powerful horses. The horses have intense musculature and flowing manes, conveying a sense of movement and energy. The chariot is ornately designed, and light emanates around it, creating an aura of energy and drama. Above the chariot, rays of light come from a circular celestial form, adding a radiant effect to the composition. The drawing uses intricate lines and shading techniques to enhance the drama and depth of the scene.
