About this work

The painting depicts a nude male figure standing with his feet together, facing slightly to the right. His left arm is raised above his head, and his right arm is bent at the elbow, with his hand near his face. The figure is rendered in a realistic style, with attention to the play of light and shadow on his body. The background of the painting is a muted, earthy tone, which helps to focus the viewer's attention on the figure. This painting is part of the collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
