Mies, Andrea del Sarton mukaan 1877 - 1878

"Mies, Andrea del Sarton mukaan," created between 1877 and 1878 by Finnish artist Helene Schjerfbeck, is a charcoal sketch of a seated male figure. Schjerfbeck is known for her expressive and often melancholic portraits and figurative studies, and this work reflects her signature style. The study captures the essence of a figure through simplified lines and shaded areas, emphasizing the anatomy and form of the male subject. The artist's focus on anatomical accuracy is evident in the meticulous detail of the figure's musculature and posture. This charcoal sketch is a testament to Schjerfbeck's talent for capturing the human form with both accuracy and emotional depth.
