"Man on Bended Knee, Pulling on Rope" is a drawing created by Florentine artist Bernardino Poccetti circa 1604. The drawing, currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, depicts a figure in the act of pulling on a rope, the pose is rendered in detail through hatching and shading. The artwork is a study for a larger composition, likely a painting. The drawing's dynamic energy and focus on the figure's movement reflects the artist's interest in human anatomy and gesture, common in the Mannerist style of the 16th and 17th centuries.
