Middle Aged (and older) Day, Part 2 - Academic Art from Five Nations
For part two of our double feature tribute to men "of a certain age," we will look at some
drawings of male nudes that are literally all over the world map, being from five nations.
We start with Italy and this 1908 piece by Andrea Landini.
Amazing realism. The facial expression may be deadpan, but there is so much life and energy in it.
