Standing Male Nude from Behind

Deutsche Grafik 1890–1903, 1893

The artwork depicts a male figure shown from behind, with the full body visible. The figure is positioned with one arm extended outward and the other bent. The musculature is highlighted with detailed shading, emphasizing the contours and form. The man's head is slightly turned to one side, and his hair is short. The paper is a warm, brown tone, which contrasts with the white highlights and darker pencil lines used to define the body. There is no additional background detail, keeping the focus entirely on the figure.
