( x cm), Drawings, Veronese School, possibly a follower of Stefano da Verona (Stefano di Giovanni) (Italian, Verona (?) 1374/75–?ca. 1438 Castel Bragher), The strong contours of this sheet, seen especially in the treatment of the hair and beard, are characteristic of Stefano’s drawing style, as are the parallel hatched lines used to create shading.
