(32. 4 x 23. 1cm), Drawings, Giovanni Battista Naldini (Italian, Fiesole ca. 1537?1591 Florence), Naldini appears to have had a flair for bringing figures together in beautifully choreographed compositions, many of which he designed to embellish churches in Florence and Rome. His strong, yet mellifluous drawings reflect the influences of Michelangelo, Pontormo, and Andrea del Sarto
