Peter van Lint

Peter van Lint is represented in this archive by a single sheet, The Temptation of Eve, dated 1639. The drawing is executed in pen and brown ink with brush and brown wash over black chalk, squared in black chalk and enclosed by framing lines in pen and brown ink. This combination of wash and chalk underdrawing points to a working method rooted in the drawing practices of the early seventeenth century, when such sheets served both as studies and as finished compositions.
