Man Kneeling With Jug (recto); Standing Man (verso) n.d.

This is a drawing of a standing male figure by Nicolas Poussin, a prominent French artist of the Baroque period. The drawing is a study for a larger composition, featuring a single figure in a dynamic pose. The artist’s characteristic use of line, drawing with confidence, and bold depiction of anatomy is visible in this work. The drawing, created with black chalk on paper, likely served as preparation for a larger painting, demonstrating the artist’s working process and a clear example of his distinctive artistic style.
