Academic study of male Nude. Two -sided. Sketches on reverce. 19th century

About the Item

19th century Italian school drawing. Academic study of the figure of the young naked man. Drawing made from two sides of the sheet of paper On the other side two feet and an arm are represented with great skill and excellent technique. A very light stain on the side with a boy sitting on the cube. Coming from the bequest of the Turin artist Luigi Guglielmino. The collection of sketches and preparatory drawings mainly included works by his master, Enrico Reffo, one of the greatest exponents of Italian religious painting of the second half of the 19th century. Our drawing must be a preparatory drawing or a sketch for a fresco project in one of the many Piedmontese buildings frescoed by Reffo and his pupils. Drawing of great quality, which shows the continuity of the Italian and English academic drawing school, which continued to live in the Reffo Painter's atelier.
