Nude Male, archer 1859

Mariano Fortuny Marsal's "Nude Male, archer" (1859) is a charcoal drawing depicting a nude male figure in a dynamic pose, kneeling on a wooden block and reaching out with a bow and arrow. The artist's masterful use of charcoal creates a sense of depth and realism, highlighting the anatomical detail of the figure. This study, likely completed for academic purposes, showcases Fortuny's talent for rendering the human form with both accuracy and artistic expression.
