Sleeping beauty 1869

"Sleeping Beauty", painted in 1869 by Joaquín Agrasot, depicts a nude male figure, likely a young man, in a state of repose. The figure's relaxed pose and the soft, painterly brushstrokes contribute to the overall sense of tranquility. Agrasot's attention to detail and masterful use of light and shadow enhance the realism of the subject. While the subject is reminiscent of traditional academic figure studies, Agrasot's approach, characterized by loose brushwork and a preference for naturalistic settings, reflects his artistic evolution.
