Study of Male Figure, seated
Summary
A reproduction produced by the Vasari Society of a drawing by Lodovico Carracci. The drawing shows a male nude seated on an unseen structure, and facing towards the right. The man has both knees bent, and his legs are cut off by the edge of the composition. He is leaning slightly towards the right and his head is turned away from the viewer. The original drawing was in black chalk. Text from the accompanying booklet produced by the Vasari Society: "No. 17 LODOVICO CARRACCI (b. 1555, d. 1619) STUDY OF A MALE FIGURE, SEATED Collection of Mr. Edward Holland. Black chalk. 26 x 28.8 cm. (10 1/4 x 11 3/8 in.) An unusually fine and attractive example of the academic drawing in the Bolognese manner, attributed with probability to Lodovico Carracci."
