Academy Of Man, School Of Fine Arts 1878
Artist: Gustave Rouault
Male Academy Study, oil on canvas, awarded a prize in 1878.
Very good condition.
Dimensions with frame: 88 x 49 cm.
A fine academy study of a nude male seen from behind, holding a baguette resting on his shoulder, in a classic studio pose. The body is rendered with precision and restraint, in the spirit of late 19th-century academic teaching: precise drawing, soft light, and a neutral background that highlight the volumes and anatomy.
The plaque inscribed "École des Beaux-Arts – Year 1878 – 1st Prize – Gustave Rouault" most likely indicates a work created or awarded a prize as part of a studio or school competition, rather than by a famous artist, which is consistent with the very nature of this painting, originally intended for educational purposes.
The painting is in very good condition, and its period oak frame lends considerable presence to this elegant and understated work from the late 19th century.
