Henri Lehmann, born Karl Ernest Rudolf Heinrich Salem Lehmann (1814-1882), was a distinguished German-French painter known for his contributions to the academic art tradition of the 19th century. Lehmann's oeuvre encompasses a wide range of subjects, including historical, religious, and mythological themes, as well as portraiture. One of his notable works is "A reclining nude holding an urn, with subsidiary studies of his head, torso and legs," which exemplifies his meticulous approach to figure drawing and composition.

This particular piece showcases Lehmann's adept skill in rendering the human form with precision and sensitivity. The central figure, a reclining nude, is depicted in a relaxed yet elegant pose, holding an urn—a classical motif that often symbolizes themes of mortality, memory, or the passage of time. The subsidiary studies surrounding the main figure provide a deeper insight into Lehmann's artistic process, revealing his methodical approach to capturing the anatomy and proportions of the human body. These studies include detailed examinations of the head, torso, and legs, each rendered with careful attention to musculature and form.

Lehmann's training under the tutelage of Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, a leading figure of the Neoclassical movement, is evident in the disciplined line work and idealized beauty of the figures. The influence of Ingres is particularly noticeable in the clarity and precision of Lehmann's draftsmanship, as well as in the serene and contemplative quality of the composition.

"A reclining nude holding an urn, with subsidiary studies of his head, torso and legs" not only highlights Lehmann's technical prowess but also reflects the academic art principles that dominated the 19th-century European art scene. Through this work, Lehmann contributes to the enduring tradition of classical figure studies, bridging the gap between rigorous academic training and the expressive potential of fine art.
