"19th Century Academic Drawing – Study Of A Male Nude"
Black chalk drawing of a nude man in movement, probably an academic studio study from the 19th century. This type of work was intended for learning life drawing in Fine Arts schools. The dynamic posture of the model, the anatomical mastery, the fineness of the line and the attention paid to shading reflect the hand of an experienced artist, perhaps an advanced student or a teacher. The rendering of the face and musculature is particularly careful. Old laid paper slightly yellowed by time. No visible signature. Quality modern frame included. Dimensions of the drawing (without frame): 27.5 x 49 cm Total dimensions with frame: 70 x 90 cm Careful worldwide shipping
