Nude Man Seated 

This charcoal drawing, "Nude Man Seated," is a study by the American realist painter Thomas Eakins. Eakins is known for his detailed and anatomical studies of the human form, and this drawing exemplifies his approach. The simplified lines and shading of the drawing focus on the contours of the nude male body, creating a sense of both dynamism and stillness. Eakins' dedication to anatomical accuracy was evident in his artistic career, influencing his later paintings.
