Ventura Salimbeni

Artist, Sienese, 1568 - 1613

The image is a full-body sketch of a person standing. The person's position is slightly turned to the side with one arm extended outwards, while the other arm is bent across their torso. The face is roughly sketched, and the hair is of medium length and somewhat wavy. The person's clothing is drawn in loose, flowing lines, resembling robes or a long coat, and they seem to be holding a long, thin object. The background is plain, and there is a signature "Van Dyck" at the bottom of the sketch.
