Label Text
The certainty and velocity of the strokes in this drawing indicate Cambiaso's own hand. The Virgin's drapery, however, is renderedd as a busy surface with little volume, and the hatching in the background fills the area without suggesting depth. The drawing is probably a replica of another.
