Ecstatic Christ ca. 1510-11 Hans Baldung (called Hans Baldung Grien) German The subject of this drawing is highly unusual. Christ is represented after the Crucifixion, as the wounds on his hands and feet indicate, but in a moment before his death, his uplifted head and heavenward gaze evidently signifying a spiritual communion with God the Father. No textual source has been identified for this unprecedented subject and it is possible that it was invented by Baldung himself. The formal source of the supine figure of Christ may lie in ancient Roman representations of dying heroes, known to Northern artists through widely circulated drawn copies.. Ecstatic Christ 459138

Seated Figure of Mercury 1524-1526 Parmigianino (Girolamo Francesco Maria Mazzola) Italian The attribution of this drawing to Parmigianino was first advanced by Oberhuber (oral communication to the previous owner) and has been universally accepted. De Grazia hypothesized that it may have been made as a preparatory study for a lost painting of Mercury by Parmigianino listed in the 1561 inventory of works belonging to his patron, the Cavaliere Francesco Baiardo. Whether or not this is true, it is clear that the drawing was made in connection with a finished work, on account both of the specificity of its composition and the existence of a small earlier sketch of the same figure in the National Gallery of Art, Washington (Washington and Parma 1984, fig. 42a). The pose of Mercury, with elongated torso and sharply foreshortened legs, indicates that the painting or fresco was to be viewed from below. The style of the drawing, and its obvious partial dependence on Michelangelo's fresco of Jon

Study of a Seated Youth for the Age of Gold. Artist: Pietro da Cortona (Pietro Berrettini) (Italian, Cortona 1596-1669 Rome). Dimensions: 11-1/4 x 10-1/4 in. (28.6 x 26 cm). Date: 1637.In June 1637, Pietro da Cortona, the leading Italian Baroque painter of his time, arrived in Florence and immediately began a fresco cycle commissioned by the Grand Duke of Tuscany, Ferdinando II (1610-1670) and his wife Vittoria della Rovere (1622-1694), for the Camera della Stufa in the Pitti Palace. The subject was the "Four Ages of the World" as recounted at the beginning of Ovid's Metamorphoses, a classical literary source. Together with another sheet in the Museum's collection (inv. 1972.118.250), this drawing is a study for a youth seated at the left in the "Age of Gold". In this fresco a young woman crowns the seated youth with a laurel of victory, an allusion to the name Vittoria, while putti, laden with branches of oak (rovere), advance without disturbing a docile lion, these are references to

A Wind God 1669 Pietro da Cortona (Pietro Berrettini) Italian This study of a youth after life served for the figure of a wind god, appearing at the edge of the central oval of the frescoed ceiling in the "Sala di Apollo" (Palazzo Pitti, Florence). In 1641, the Baroque master Pietro da Cortona undertook the decoration of the state rooms of the Palazzo Pitti, using an iconographic program that dedicated each room to a planet symbolic of the virtues required of a prince, from youth through old age. The "Sala di Venere" was the first to be finished, then the "Sala di Giove" and the "Sala di Marte." It is not clear how far work on the elaborate stucco ornament for the "Sala di Apollo" had progressed when Cortona left for Rome in 1647. The frescoes had hardly been begun. Cortona himself was never able to return to Florence to complete the project, and the decoration was finished by his principal assistant, Ciro Ferri (Italian, 1634-1689), as late as 1661.
