A sheet of studies 1525 - 1600
-
A drawing of a nude man seen from behind, the musculature exaggerated in the manner of an ecorché; two hands, a foot, a bearded head, and part of another figure standing in water.
Popham (in P&W) thought that 'the method of drawing the hands and knuckles is characteristic and unmistakeable', but there is a stiffness to the penwork which may indicate a copy.Provenance
Probably one of the drawings in an album listed in George III’s Inventory A, c.1800-20, p. 47, ‘Michael Angelo, Fra: Bartolomeo, And: del Sarto &[c], Tom. III’, pp. 7-15, ‘Anatomical Studys.’
