"Study of a Head" is a notable drawing by the Italian Mannerist artist Girolamo Francesco Maria Mazzola, better known as Parmigianino, created in the early 16th century. This work exemplifies Parmigianino's mastery in capturing human expression and his innovative approach to portraiture that was characteristic of the Mannerist period. The drawing is executed with delicate lines that reveal the artist's skillful use of the medium, likely black chalk or ink, to render the intricate details of the subject's features and hair.

The subject of "Study of a Head" is not definitively known, which adds an element of mystery to the piece. It may have been a preparatory study for a larger painting, a common practice among artists of the time to refine their depiction of individual figures or facial expressions. The drawing showcases Parmigianino's fascination with idealized beauty and elongated forms, which are hallmarks of his style and contribute to the ethereal and otherworldly quality of his figures.

"Study of a Head" is significant in the oeuvre of Parmigianino as it provides insight into his artistic process and the development of his distinctive aesthetic. The work is also an important example of the shift in art from the High Renaissance's emphasis on harmony and proportion to the Mannerist's exploration of elegance and artifice.

The drawing is held in a prominent art collection or museum, where it continues to be studied and admired for its art historical importance and the window it provides into the techniques and themes prevalent in 16th-century Italian art. As a testament to Parmigianino's influence, "Study of a Head" remains a subject of interest for scholars and enthusiasts of Renaissance and Mannerist art.
