On View
Not on viewDuring the 1560s, in religious works of more contemplative subject and gentler mood, Cambiaso often adopted a mode of more conventional description and inherent beauty. This drawing, muted in contrast, lyrical in stroke, and appeal-ing in sentiment, is a fine example of this mode.
