About the Work

On close inspection, we can discern the delicate pen strokes alluding to the composition’s architectural framework. The artist made this sketch as a design for a cupola fresco in the Roman Church of San Giacomo. However sparse and rapid—indeed, almost coarse—its execution, it clearly conveys the mood of the persons involved in the robing of Saint Didacus by the Franciscans.
