Man met twee geselroedes 1550 - 1625

"Man met twee geselroedes" is an anonymous drawing from the 16th or 17th century. The drawing, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, depicts a nude male figure from the back, holding a staff in his right hand, with the left hand resting on the staff’s shaft. The figure's musculature and anatomy are rendered with great detail, demonstrating the artist’s skill in capturing human form. The drawing exemplifies the study of anatomy and figural representation prevalent in the Northern Renaissance.
