Called Il Legnanino (attributed to) - Study of figures pencil on paper The work presents two sketched figures, traced with rapid, light and non-final signs, indicating an initial phase of the creative process. The figures appear concise and lacking in detail, with attention focused mainly on posture, movement and the construction of form in space, rather than on precise anatomical rendering. The stroke is fluid and continuous, typical of Lombard Baroque drawing, and suggests a dynamic study aimed at experimenting with different compositional solutions. The presence of two figures on the same sheet probably indicates an analysis of the relationships between bodies or a variation of poses, consistent with the artistic practice of the time, in which drawing had a design function for more complex works such as frescoes or altarpieces.
