1556
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Un Hebreo, from Christ Shown to the People (recto) is a 1556 by Taddeo Zuccari, a Renaissance work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The image presents a sketch of a man, likely a biblical figure, with his right arm outstretched and his left hand grasping his garment. He is depicted in a dynamic pose, with his body twisted to face the viewer. The sketch is rendered in a light brown color, with visible lines and shading that suggest a sense of movement and energy. The man's facial expression is one of intensity, with his eyes cast downward and his brow furrowed. His clothing is loose-fitting, with folds and creases that add depth and texture to the sketch. The background of the image is a plain, off-white color, which serves to highlight the figure and create a sense of contrast. This sketch is reminiscent of the work of Taddeo Zuccaro, an Italian artist known for his Renaissance-style paintings and drawings.
Taddeo Zuccaro (or Zuccari) (1 September 1529 – 2 September 1566) was an Italian painter, one of the most popular members of the Roman mannerist school.
