Question
I find this drawing to be quite impressive, but I'm left questioning if it was
a study or perhaps a student work from his academic time.
That back is rather good. Again, quite a mature physique. The peekaboo is delightful. Apparently, model have been known to stand just far enough apart to see if artists wish to include additional features.
My favourite in this series. It has the feel of a study or a work from earlier in his student days. I agree that he captures the musculature beautifully.
Whatever it might be, he caught the musculature beautifully. And there is the slightest hint of peekaboo here, too.
ReplyDeleteI noticed the between the legs glimpse, too.

DeleteAnd given the fact that the artist was gay and known to date his models, there's a fair chance he was encouraged to stand that way.

Like you say, it's quite good regardless of why it was made.
