Seated Female Nude, with Raised Arms

Jean Grandjean, 1776-02-09

In these studies Grandjean strictly followed the prevailing guidelines for drawing a model. For instance, he used black and white chalk on blue paper to achieve finer tonal nuances. And, he situated his models in an imaginary setting. With their athletic build and theatrical bearing, these two nude models resemble ancient sculptures.
