Study of the Allegorical Figure of the Genius of Health from Rubens' "The Birth of Louis XIII at Fontainbleau"

Paul Cézanne, 1895/1898

The image shows a sketch of a person in a reclining position, represented from head to toe. The individual is lying on their back with limbs extended in various directions. The facial features are basic, with a simple outline and faint indications of features, while the hair is illustrated with flowing lines. The person is nude, without any clothing or accessories. The background is formed by the open sketchbook's blank page, revealing the paper's edges and the book's spine.
