The French artist Robert Ango lived in Rome in the early 1760s and produced countless red chalk drawings copying Italian baroque paintings from the preceding century. The source for this study is Domenichino painting of the Assumption from the Virgin (1616-17) in Rome's church of Santa Maria in Trastevere, a canvas inserted into the lavish coffered ceiling that Domenichino also designed.
