Nude Man Seen from Behind [verso]

About this work

You see a simple drawing of a nude man from behind. He's standing with his feet apart, and his back is slightly arched. The artist used pen and brown ink to create this work, which is a fairly common technique for sketches like this. The drawing is interesting because it shows the artist's skill at creating a sense of depth and volume with just a few lines. The way the man's back and legs are drawn gives a sense of movement and tension. Check out the work of artist: Palma il Giovane, Jacopo, to see more of his drawings and paintings.
