Sheet of Studies [recto and verso] 

This sheet of studies by John Flaxman, a prominent English sculptor and draftsman, showcases the artist's masterful handling of the human figure. The recto features a single, full-length nude figure, rendered in a simple yet expressive style. The verso of the sheet includes numerous quick sketches of figures and drapery folds, likely done as part of his preparatory work for larger projects. Flaxman's sketches, while seemingly effortless, offer invaluable insights into his creative process and the development of his mature style.
