"A Seated Saint Looking Up, With Subsidiary Studies Of His Hands" is a notable drawing by the French artist Charles Le Brun, who was a leading figure in 17th-century French art. Le Brun, born in 1619 and deceased in 1690, was a painter, designer, and art theorist who played a pivotal role in the development of French Baroque art. He was the principal painter to King Louis XIV and the director of the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture, as well as the chief decorator of the Palace of Versailles.

This particular drawing exemplifies Le Brun's mastery in capturing human expression and anatomy, which were central themes in his work. The drawing features a seated saint, gazing upwards, which is a common motif in religious art symbolizing divine inspiration or communication with the heavens. The saint's posture and facial expression are meticulously rendered, showcasing Le Brun's skill in conveying emotion and spirituality.

In addition to the main figure, the drawing includes subsidiary studies of the saint's hands. These studies highlight Le Brun's dedication to anatomical precision and his methodical approach to composition. By focusing on the hands, Le Brun demonstrates his understanding of their expressive potential, which complements the overall emotional impact of the piece.

Le Brun's work is characterized by its classical influences, particularly the emphasis on idealized beauty and harmonious proportions, which are evident in this drawing. The piece not only reflects Le Brun's technical prowess but also his theoretical contributions to art, particularly his ideas on the expression of the passions, which he detailed in his treatise "Méthode pour apprendre à dessiner les passions."

"A Seated Saint Looking Up, With Subsidiary Studies Of His Hands" is a testament to Charles Le Brun's influential role in the art world and his enduring legacy in the canon of Western art. The drawing remains an important study for understanding the techniques and artistic principles of the Baroque period in France.
