EDITORS COMMENTS
Two Putti with Lamb" is a captivating work of art from the School of Leonardo da Vinci, showcased in the Art Institute of Chicago. This exquisite drawing, of undetermined age, is a testament to the artistic mastery of the Italian Renaissance period. The black and white composition is rendered in pen and brown ink over red chalk on cream laid paper, which has been laid down on ivory wove paper. The use of contrasting textures and tones creates a striking visual effect, with the putti's delicate features and the lamb's soft, woolly texture standing out against the stark background. The scene depicts two putti, or mythological infants, playfully interacting with a lamb. The putti, dressed in flowing robes and adorned with flowers, are depicted in a state of joy and mischief, while the lamb, with its gentle expression and innocent demeanor, adds an element of tranquility to the composition. The drawing is imbued with Christian symbolism, as putti were often used to represent the divine in Renaissance art. The lamb, a common symbol of Christ, further reinforces the religious theme. This beautiful work of art is a valuable addition to the Art Institute of Chicago's extensive collection of historic prints and drawings. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Italy and the enduring influence of Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance period on the world of art. Whether you are a scholar of art history, a lover of Italian culture, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of a well-crafted drawing, "Two Putti with Lamb" is sure to captivate and inspire you.
