Charcoal DRAWING by Roberto Tagliazucchi

This charcoal drawing is a captivating depiction of a female figure, executed with energetic and fluid lines that outline the form in an almost sculptural style. The artist skillfully plays with the contrast between broad shadow areas and bold strokes, giving the figure remarkable dynamism and depth. The subject's position, with the hand partially covering the face, suggests a moment of reflection or melancholy, inviting the viewer into a deeper contemplation of her emotional state.

The free and seemingly spontaneous stroke, typical of charcoal work, expresses particular effectiveness here, suggesting movement and emotion even in the static pose. The lines are both delicate and strong, highlighting the artist's technical mastery of the medium.
