Sobre a obra
Working in Naples, Giovanni Battista Caracciolo was one of the first artists to adopt the figural style and shadowy compositions of Caravaggio after the latter arrived in the city in 1606. Unlike Caravaggio, however, who is reputed never to have made preparatory drawings, Caracciolo continued to draw, following the practice that he learned from his first master, Belisario Corenzio. Yet, this study demonstrates the slightly piecemeal approach to composition and the seemingly disjointed limbs typical of caravaggismo, which favored emotion and drama over the accurate depiction of anatomy. The elaborately folded draperies, minimalist indications of features, and technically brilliant foreshortening (see the figure at lower left) are particular characteristics of Caracciolo's draftsmanship.
