Staande figuur met omgeslagen mantel 1732 - 1740

This etching, "Staande figuur met omgeslagen mantel," by Jacques Philippe Le Bas, is a study in the style of the Neoclassical period, drawing heavily on Greek and Roman sculpture. Le Bas's work is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and emphasis on clarity of form. The figure is depicted in a standing pose, draped in a toga-like garment. The composition is simple and balanced, with a focus on the figure's anatomy and the carefully rendered folds of the drapery. This work is a testament to Le Bas's skill as a draftsman and his dedication to the ideals of Classical art. The etching is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
