I believe this drawing was done during Edelfelt's training in Paris.

  1. Is it just me, or does this drawing have an almost photographic quality to it?

    1. Not really, but deja vu maybe. This model appears over and over during that era.

    2. He does seem familiar. I presume Edelfelt was short of time? The model's right hand is clearly resting on something.

    3. I noticed the right hand, too. I think these academic works focused on the male body and sometimes skimped on the props. I'm not complaining, mind you.
