Description
English: Drawing of a straining-muscled male nude, in a "hyper-anatomical" style; with muscles highly emphasized (& perhaps departing from anatomical accuracy). His eyes are bulging & distended, & only lightly sketched in. Full-length, standing, side-view.

The drawing is executed in charcoal and white chalk on blue, laid, watermarked paper; size is 59.7 cm. by 38 cm., unframed. Condition is good; some scattered dirt throughout, sides slightly damaged, corners and right side show traces of folding.

Dutch School of the Empire Period, academy art; circa 1800.

Private collection, fam. Wittig et cie..

This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).
