Naakte zittende man c. 1829 - 1845

"Naakte zittende man" is a charcoal drawing by Dutch artist Henricus Wilhelmus Couwenberg, created between 1829 and 1845. The artwork depicts a nude male figure sitting on a block, his left leg bent and resting on his right knee. The figure is rendered in a lifelike and detailed style with subtle shading and anatomical precision, characteristic of Couwenberg's studies of the human form. The drawing, which currently resides at the Rijksmuseum, demonstrates the artist's skills in capturing the human anatomy and the influence of classical art.
