JENNY SAVILLEReproduction drawing I (after the Leonardo cartoon), 2009-2010Pencil on paper89 1/8 x 69 1/2 inches (226.3 x 176.5 cm) http://www.gagosian.com/exhibitions/2010-04-15_jenny-saville/ My painting professor suggested that I check out these drawings by Jenny Saville. I really love the movement in each drawing. She did an excellent job capturing the movement of the child while the mother was trying to hold the pose. There are moments of solidity that anchor the image while many more drawing suggest where the models have been. The drawings are absolutely elegant.
