Studie van twee naakte mannen 1713 - 1770

This red chalk drawing, titled "Studie van twee naakte mannen" (Study of Two Naked Men), is a study by French artist François Boucher. The artist, known for his Rococo style and elegant depictions of the human form, used this drawing to practice and refine his skills in capturing the intricacies of the human body. Boucher's signature, visible in the lower right corner, marks this work as an important example of his artistic process. The piece showcases Boucher's mastery of line and form, a hallmark of his artistic style, and is a testament to his dedication to the art of drawing. The study is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
