"Study of an Apostle (2)" is a notable work created around 1511 by the German Renaissance painter Matthias Grünewald, also known as Mathis Gothardt. Grünewald is renowned for his emotionally intense and vividly expressive religious paintings, which stand in stark contrast to the more serene and harmonious works of his contemporaries, such as Albrecht Dürer. This particular study is a testament to Grünewald's exceptional skill in capturing human emotion and spiritual fervor.

The "Study of an Apostle (2)" is believed to be a preparatory drawing for one of Grünewald's larger, more complex compositions. It showcases his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to convey profound psychological depth through facial expressions and body language. The drawing likely served as a preliminary exploration of character and form, allowing Grünewald to experiment with different poses and expressions before committing to the final version in his paintings.

Grünewald's work is characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, which adds a sense of three-dimensionality and realism to his figures. In this study, the apostle is depicted with a contemplative and intense expression, suggesting a moment of deep spiritual reflection or divine inspiration. The careful rendering of the apostle's features, combined with the dynamic lines and shading, exemplifies Grünewald's mastery of draftsmanship.

Although not as widely known as some of his other works, such as the Isenheim Altarpiece, the "Study of an Apostle (2)" provides valuable insight into Grünewald's artistic process and his approach to capturing the human condition. It remains an important piece for understanding the development of Renaissance art in Germany and the unique contributions of Matthias Grünewald to the period's artistic legacy.
