Den nøgne mand i højre forgrund af ’Abraham og Melchizedek’ 1628 - 1630

This is a red chalk drawing from 1628-1630 by Willem Panneels, titled "Den nøgne mand i højre forgrund af ’Abraham og Melchizedek’." The drawing shows a study of a male nude in a seated pose, likely a preparatory drawing for a larger work. The detailed anatomical study of the body, with its emphasis on musculature and posture, suggests Panneels' mastery of classical art principles and his interest in human anatomy. This drawing is a testament to the artist's skill and provides a glimpse into his creative process. The drawing can be viewed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
