Original artwork description:

A study after one of the Angels in Piero Della Francesca's "Madonna and Child with Four Angels". The apparent simplicity and solidity of Piero's forms is fruit of a strong and synthesising vision: the ability to see through the unnecessary clutter of detail and focus on the essential. For me his drawing and tonal subtlety are just about perfection. This drawing helped me understand something about Piero, and about how form can be drawn..

Materials used:

Pencil on Fabriano Paper
