Title
Saint Francis of Assisi
Description
Composition in black tones, white, blue, rose and red. Contour lines, colored areas and cells for expansion. San Francisco standing in front, occupying the entire area of the composition against white background. The saint wears long cassock, fastened at the waist with rope belt, with tips falling on his on the right; the head, a kind of hood. Has some parallels with forehead creases, large eyes turned to the right, long nose, lips closed and beard. It is with folded hands, just sketched, as if praying and bare feet.
