Important academic drawing depicting a standing male nude, arms raised behind his head, in a studio pose intended for the study of volumes and muscular tension.
Description:
The model is rendered with careful observation of anatomy: subtle transitions between light and shadow, supple hatching, and progressive modeling reveal a hand trained in the principles of academic drawing.
Executed in charcoal or black pencil on paper, the work highlights the body's structure, with a marked contrast between the largely blurred background and the more precisely defined figure.
The particularly well-executed face provides an expressive presence that balances the anatomical study.
The overall effect evokes the exercises practiced in art studios of the late 19th or early 20th century.
Presented in a simple modern wooden frame with a mat, ready to hang.
Good overall condition with a natural patina on the paper consistent with its age.
