pen and brown ink over black chalk, laid down

The present work draws stylistical comparison with another drawing by G. D. Cappellino in a private collection, New York (Fig. 1), and especially the distinctive presence of the sculpture to the left.
We are grateful to Federica Mancini for her help in cataloguing the present drawing.
