Ung mandlig model (skulptur?) med hånden i siden, set i profil 1831 - 1852

"Ung mandlig model (skulptur?) med hånden i siden, set i profil" is a pencil drawing by Danish artist Dankvart Dreyer, completed between 1831 and 1852, the year of his death. The drawing is a study of the human form, depicting a nude male figure in profile. Dreyer was known for his anatomical accuracy and his skill in capturing the nuances of human anatomy. This drawing, with its emphasis on the subject's musculature and the artist's careful attention to detail, exemplifies this skill. This study likely served as a preparatory work for a larger project, possibly a sculpture or painting. "Ung mandlig model (skulptur?) med hånden i siden, set i profil" is housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, providing a valuable glimpse into the artistic practices of Dankvart Dreyer.
