The Vision of Saint Eustace. Artist: Federico Zuccaro (Zuccari) (Italian, Sant'Angelo in Vado 1540/42-1609 Ancona). Dimensions: 13 7/16 x 7 15/16in. (34.1 x 20.2cm). Date: 1542-1609.Created while Federico was still under the tutelage of his elder brother Taddeo (1529-1566), this drawing was the model for one of the frescoes that decorated the façade of a house in the Piazza San Eustachio in Rome. Federico's draftsmanship, while less spirited than that of his brother, is admirable for a firmness, clarity, and refined naturalism that were well suited to the Counter-Reformation goal of presenting religious subjects in a direct and accessible manner. The Roman general is depicted at the moment when, during a hunting expedition, he sees the crucified Christ between the horns of a stag and is converted. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
