EDITORS COMMENTS
This pen and ink drawing on paper, titled "Study for Institution of the Rosary by Saint Dominic," is a beautiful work of art created by Francesco Lorenzi in the 18th century. The drawing is a study for a larger work, believed to be a collaboration between Lorenzi and the renowned Italian painter, Giambattista Tiepolo or his son, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. The image depicts Saint Dominic of Osma, also known as Dominic de Guzman or Santo Domingo de Guzman, the founder of the Dominican Order, as he institutes the Rosary. Dominic is shown in the center, surrounded by figures representing various aspects of the Rosary, including the Virgin Mary, the Apostles, and the mysteries of the Rosary. The drawing is done in pen and ink with wash, creating a delicate and intricate texture. The drawing is a significant historical and artistic piece, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Italy during the 18th century. It is a conceptual work, showcasing the importance of prayer and the Rosary in the Catholic faith. The drawing is a testament to the artistic skill and creativity of Francesco Lorenzi and the influence of the Tiepolo family on the artistic scene of the time. The Study for Institution of the Rosary by Saint Dominic is currently housed in the Prints and Drawings Department of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it is available for viewing as part of their extensive collection of historic and contemporary art. The drawing is a reminder of the enduring power of art to inspire, educate, and preserve the stories and traditions of the past.
