Such sets of prints were intended to help art students and art lovers to gain a better understanding of the human figure in drawing. Boucher, a prolific draughtsman famous for nude studies, produced a great number of such figures. All reflect the artist's excellent knowledge of anatomy and his belief in the concept of ideal beauty." | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | MALE : NUDE : LIFE DRAWING : 18TH CENTURY : LYING : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
