Pyramid of six Men 1540 - 1550

Juste de Juste's *Pyramid of Six Men* (1540-1550) is a masterful etching, depicting the human body in intricate detail. The six figures form a precarious pyramid, showcasing the artist's understanding of anatomy and perspective. The work exemplifies the High Renaissance interest in human form, echoing the influence of Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci. This print, currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to Juste de Juste's skill and the enduring fascination with the human body's potential for both beauty and complexity.
