About the piece

Created around 1636, this masterful oil sketch by Peter Paul Rubens depicts the Three Graces in a dynamic, rhythmic composition. The work showcases the artist's legendary fluidity and command of the human form, rendered here in a sophisticated monochromatic palette that emphasizes light and shadow over a visible wood panel grain, typical of Rubens' preparation for larger compositions.
