Offered by: Judith San Quintin Antiques and Luxury Design

Description
Grisalla Nude of an Athlete, Oil on Canvas, 19th century
This painting presents a sculptural representation in grisaille of a nude man in a solemn attitude, on a black background that intensifies his presence. The work highlights the mastery in the anatomical treatment, which denotes strength, ideal proportions and realism, evoking the classical style of the 18th century.

The figure, possibly inspired by mythological heroes or Renaissance figures, holds a staff or symbolic attribute in one hand. The detail in the musculature and body tension offer exceptional drama and three-dimensionality.

Executed in oil on canvas, it stands out for its monochromatic palette, with beautiful neutral tones. The piece is in a remarkable state of preservation, with signs of time that accentuate its authenticity.

Ideal for collectors, this monumental work brings sophistication, character and an air of timelessness to any space. A magnificent piece for lovers of historical art and classical beauty. There are currently two available.
