Anatomical Study and Sketch of Kneeling Figure n.d.

This anatomical study of a kneeling figure is a drawing by a follower of Michelangelo Buonarroti. It is an example of a preparatory drawing made in preparation for a larger work. The artist focuses on the musculature of the figure, emphasizing the form and structure of the body through detailed lines and shading. This meticulous study is a testament to the enduring influence of Michelangelo’s art on generations of artists. The work is part of the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago.
