Этюды к Сивилле Ливийской

Michelangelo Buonarroti Italian

Not on view

Искусное, написанное с мужской натуры (подмастерья или натурщика) изображение головы, торса, приподнятых рук мускулистой, грациозно изогнувшейся фигуры у Микеланджело — подготовительный этюд к Сивилле Ливийской, одной из женщин-пророков языческого мира, появляющейся на фресочном потолке Сикстинской капеллы Ватиканского дворца. В серии вспомогательных набросков художник снова обратился к деталям, таким как утонченный профиль фигуры, большой палец ноги, делающий пируэты, приподнятая рука, на фреске держащая пророческую книгу Сивиллы. Этот рисунок, перешедший к наследникам художника после его смерти, — одна из из самых значимых и знаменитых работ Микеланджело.
