La Loggia



A sketch from La Loggia, just outside Palazzo Vecchio, near the Uffizi... the same place as Perseus and Medusa.

Sketchbooks

I've done a lot of drawing over the last two months here... Florence is an incredibly inspiring city, there's an unreal amount of artwork here, and just walking around here I want to draw everything. Anyway, I finally got in to use the scanner in the design lab, and got all my stuff on my hard drive. Let's start with this one!



It's from probably my favorite painting in Florence, found at probably my favorite church in Florence, Santa Croce... I feel dumb because I wrote down neither the name of the painting nor the name of the artist (duh)... guess I'll have to go back!

I flipped the subjects... the Virgin Mary should be above the angel, who is hoisting her up.

EDIT: It's L'Assunzione della Vergine by Bezzuoli.
