Parable of the wise and foolish virgins

XVI century. Blue wash, Pencil, Grey-brown ink on yellow paper.
Not on display

The drawing carries an old attribution to Poccetti (1548-1612). There is much in the delicate rendering of the figures, especially in their facial type and coiffure , to suggest the hand of Bernardino India.
