拍品專文

This large and exuberantly drawn academy constitutes a peak in Novelli’s fluid and sensual draftsmanship. The nude is conveyed in broad strokes of gray washes, modeled in a darker ink with a finer brush. While a similar seated slave is in the Lehman Collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (inv. 1975.1.389), this drawing may belong to a series which included a drunken Bacchus with a putto recently on the market (Bassenge, 1 December 2017, lot 6517).
