Head of Medusa
Approximately $80,000
“The drawing of the Head of Medusa by the 17th-century Flemish artist Godfried Maes is undoubtedly one of the artist’s very finest drawings,” says London dealer Stephen Ongpin. The rendering must have been intended as a finished work of art in its own right, he says, as it is “signed with something of a flourish” and dated 1680. Ongpin is one of 20 dealers participating in Master Drawings New York, which runs January 27 to February 3 on New York’s Upper East Side. He will be exhibiting at the Dickinson Roundell Gallery.
