Hieronymus Sperling’s *Gezicht en twee aanzichten van het lichaam van een vijftienjarige jongen* is a drawing from 1723, currently at the Rijksmuseum. The artwork focuses on the human figure and its proportions, with the image showing a young man's head, front, and side view in relation to a grid system. This type of drawing is known as an *anatomical study*, which was a common exercise for artists of the time to learn about human anatomy and proportions. This technique is often considered to be related to the Classical era, with many artists of the period using this approach.
