EDITORS COMMENTS
Woman with Putto, n.d. by Guercino (1591-1666) This exquisite pen and ink drawing on cream laid paper, attributed to the renowned Italian Baroque artist Guercino (Giovanni Francesco Barbieri), depicts a woman in a contemplative moment with a putto, or cherub, at her side. The drawing, which dates back to the 17th century, showcases Guercino's mastery of the amorini, or cherubs, a common motif in his work. The woman, dressed in flowing robes, gazes introspectively into the distance, her expression reflecting a deep sense of thoughtfulness. The putto, with his chubby cheeks and wings, rests his hand on her shoulder, adding an air of playfulness and innocence to the scene. The delicate pen wash technique used by Guercino brings the figures to life, with the intricate details of the woman's clothing and the putto's wings creating a sense of texture and depth. This drawing is a rare and valuable example of Guercino's work, showcasing his ability to capture the human form with both grace and realism. The use of black and white contrasts beautifully with the cream laid paper, highlighting the intricacies of the drawing and adding to its antique charm. The Woman with Putto is a beloved work in the art world, having been exhibited in various galleries and museums throughout history, including the Art Institute of Chicago and the Piero della Francesca Gallery in Borgo Sansepolcro, Italy. This drawing is a testament to the enduring legacy of Guercino and the rich cultural heritage of the Italian Baroque period.
