Unfinished?


This is one of several of Montfort's academic drawings which appear to be incomplete
. . . or at least better developed in the upper areas than the lower.

    1. I wonder if he got chided by the instructor for not finishing his work?

    2. A pity. Clearly a very accomplished artist. As usual, I love that we can see the foot block and knee support. I can just see the model positioning them. Then the tutor making adjustments. I'm sure a popular model.

    3. You are correct about the model. He shows up in several other works of that era.
