Lot no. 9
Sacred scene with Christ between apostles and celestial figures Venetian school, late 16th century black and white chalk on brown paper The sheet presents a large sacred composition with Christ in the act of rescuing a man lying on the ground, surrounded by numerous figures. Above, a divine figure descends with a blessing gesture, while further groups of figures stand out in the background. The compositional layout, articulated on diagonals and tight masses, with elongated figures and wavy drapery, shows characteristics of late Venetian Mannerism, in particular the ambit of Jacopo Tintoretto and his followers. Signed indistinctly at lower right. Within 19th-century wooden frame
