Homme, le genou droit à terre 1892 - 1894

"Homme, le genou droit à terre" (Man, Right Knee on the Ground) is a charcoal drawing by the French symbolist painter Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, created between 1892 and 1894. The drawing features a nude male figure kneeling on the ground, his right knee bent and his left leg outstretched. The figure is rendered in a realistic style, with attention to detail in the anatomy and musculature. This drawing is a study for a larger work by Puvis de Chavannes, and showcases his interest in the human form and his use of charcoal as a medium.
