An academy study c.1728-87?
-
A study of a standing male nude, moving to the left; leaning forwards, he grips a pole with his raised hands.
From the Domenichino volume, but the cross hatching is like that used by Batoni. The drawing however may be earlier.Provenance
Probably acquired by George III in 1762 as part of the collection of Cardinal Alessandro Albani
