Staand mannelijk naakt, van voren gezien (2e prijs 1796) Possibly 1796

"Staand mannelijk naakt, van voren gezien (2e prijs 1796)" is a graphite drawing created by Nicolaus Ritter jr. in 1796. The drawing depicts a nude male figure in a standing pose, facing the viewer. This academic study, likely a prize-winning submission from a competition, demonstrates Ritter's skill in rendering the human form. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the nuanced shading and the lifelike depiction of the figure's musculature. This work exemplifies the study of anatomy and figure drawing prevalent in art education during the 18th century.
