About the Item

This framed charcoal study from 1920s England draws the viewer into an academic landscape where students at their easels concentrate on figure studies, using busts and torso models as reference. The image is dense with figural subjects ranging from the artists as fully-formed people to representations in sculptural form and the works in progress seen clipped to the easels. A hazy sepia tone infuses a warm glow to the otherwise shadowy and monochromatic composition, enhanced by a tactile quality to the paper. No visible signature; framed and matted without glass.
