Articulated Artist's Lay Figures

About the Item

Pair of articulated artist lay figures. Lay figures are posable mannequins, typically smaller than lifesize, historically used by artists to replicate the posture of a live model and the draping of their clothing without requiring the model to sit for incredibly long durations. Constructed of wood and metal, these lay figures were likely a skeleton framework built to feature a range of additional components, with a screw-threaded neck and wrists designed for the purpose of later attaching a head and hands. Priced individually.
