"Nude Study, " Rare and Important Drawing by John Grabach
About the Item
Although this drawing depicts a male nude, the artist here is clearly focusing on the power of his arms, hands and legs in particular. John Grabach, best known for his cityscapes and genre scenes, much coveted by collectors in America, was also a master of the nude. His best known allegorical nude, "Resurrection," is a grand depiction in the Classical tradition, but he also produced a small number of superb nude studies such as this, and was the author of "How to Draw the Human Figure." Grabach painted and taught in Los Angeles and New Jersey, and was given a one-man retrospective exhibition by the Smithsonian Institution in 1980.
