About the Item

Drawing pastel on paper signed in pencil in cursive at lower right P. Nomellini 1905. The front depicts a seated child with one leg crossed, caught engaging in playing a straight flute, while a detail of the head in profile is shown at lower left. It could be a preparatory drawing for a larger composition in painting or a live study on a model for academic purposes, however, we note several similarities with the character in the painting "Column of Smoke" at the Ricci Oddi Gallery of Modern Art, dating back to 1902 so it would also fit with the period of our drawing On the back, in pencil, an ornament study representing a candelabra decoration with racemes, palmettes, thorny acanthus, and flowers with a vase on which a putto's feet are resting. The drawing appears cropped and from the style of the stroke may have been traced from a pre-existing image.
