Zittend mannelijk naakt, van opzij gezien (2e prijs 1793) Possibly 1793

This 1793 drawing by Hermanus Fock depicts a nude male figure seated on a rock, his body angled away from the viewer. The work, titled "Zittend mannelijk naakt, van opzij gezien (2e prijs 1793)", is a study of the human form, rendered in careful detail with graphite on paper. It was awarded second prize in a competition that year. The artist's skill in depicting anatomy is evident in the precise rendering of muscles and contours. This drawing, now in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the academic approach to figure drawing practiced by artists in the late 18th century.
