"Angelehnt stehender männlicher Akt" is a charcoal drawing by Frederic Leighton, a prominent British artist of the 19th century. This study depicts a male nude, rendered in a realistic style with careful attention to anatomy. The figure is depicted standing, leaning slightly, with his left arm raised behind his head. Leighton's drawings often served as preparatory sketches for his larger, more elaborate paintings, and this study exemplifies his mastery of anatomical detail and his interest in classical subject matter. The drawing is currently housed in the Städel Museum in Frankfurt.
