예언자 다윗과 다니엘 by Peter Paul Rubens, ca. 1601-2

During his early Italian journey around 1601, a young Rubens sketched these biblical figures, David and Daniel, using warm red chalk that makes the scene glow with energy. The standing prophet clutches a large tablet while the seated one holds another, their dramatic drapery and muscular forms hinting at the Baroque style Rubens would soon master. An angel hovers above, gesturing towards the heavens in this likely study for a larger religious commission. It’s a brilliant snapshot of an artist in training, absorbing the masters of the past while developing his own dynamic flair.
