"Study of a Man and a Woman for the Madonna della Misericordia in Villa Guinigi, Lucca" is a preparatory drawing by the renowned Italian Renaissance painter Fra Bartolommeo, also known as Baccio della Porta. Fra Bartolommeo (1472–1517) was a prominent figure in the High Renaissance, known for his religious compositions and his role in the development of the Florentine school of painting. His works are characterized by their harmonious composition, serene figures, and masterful use of light and shadow.

This particular study, created in preparation for a larger altarpiece, showcases Fra Bartolommeo's meticulous approach to composition and his deep understanding of human anatomy. The drawing depicts a man and a woman, likely intended to be part of a larger scene featuring the Madonna della Misericordia, a common subject in Christian art that portrays the Virgin Mary extending her cloak to protect the faithful. The figures in the study are rendered with delicate lines and careful attention to detail, reflecting the artist's skill in capturing the subtleties of human expression and form.

The study is housed in the Villa Guinigi in Lucca, a museum that contains a rich collection of art and artifacts from the region's history. The Villa itself is a significant historical site, originally built in the 15th century as a residence for Paolo Guinigi, the ruler of Lucca. Today, it serves as a cultural institution, preserving and showcasing the artistic heritage of Lucca and its surroundings.

Fra Bartolommeo's work, including this study, played a crucial role in the evolution of Renaissance art. His innovative use of color, composition, and perspective influenced many of his contemporaries and successors. The "Study of a Man and a Woman for the Madonna della Misericordia" not only exemplifies his technical prowess but also provides insight into his creative process, offering a glimpse into the preparatory stages of his larger, more finished works.
