This anonymous, life-size drawing, created between 1778 and 1809, depicts a male nude in a dynamic pose, resting his weight on his right knee. The artist's masterful use of graphite creates a sense of volume and depth, highlighting the muscular anatomy of the figure. The figure's position, with his right arm raised behind his head, suggests a moment of exertion or repose, leaving the viewer to interpret the context of the pose. This study, likely created for academic purposes, is currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark. The drawing's detailed rendering of the figure's form is a testament to the artist's skill and the importance of anatomical studies in the development of artistic practice.
