Artist: Giovanni Francesco Barbieri
Artwork: The Flagellation of Christ
Description: This is a preparatory drawing for an altarpiece by Guercino. It depicts the moment when Christ is scourged by Roman soldiers. The composition is full of movement and drama, with the figures of Christ and the soldiers swirling around in a chaotic dance. The light and shade are used to create a sense of depth and atmosphere.
