The Assumption of the Virgin

by Francisco de Herrera el Mozo, circa 1648–1653

Medium
Pen and brown ink, brown wash over black chalk
Dimensions
30.6 × 21.7 cm (12 1/16 × 8 9/16 in)
Notes

Through lively penwork, de Herrera imparted a sense of movement to the substantial figure of the Virgin and the stable, classical pyramid form of the group. The artist's fertile imagination worked quickly; after doing some sketching with black chalk, he applied free-flowing, crisscrossing, tangled threads of ink ranging from the dark squiggles of the Virgin's drapery to the light tracings on the angels' robes below. The fluent washes add drama to the composition.
