Painting Description
"Studies of Foreshortened Male Nudes" is a distinguished work by the Italian artist Luca Cambiaso, who lived in the 16th Century. This particular drawing, residing at the British Museum, London, embodies Cambiaso's innovative approach to figurative drawing, through the use of geometrical shapes.
Luca Cambiaso (1527-1585) was an instrumental figure in the Genoese school of painting. Known for his rigorous geometrical design of figures, this style has been echoed in "Studies of Foreshortened Male Nudes." This method allowed Cambiaso to accurately render the visual impact of a figure viewed from different angles. The subjects appear to be viewed from above, lying flat on their back or stomach. This is a strong example of foreshortening, an artistic technique used to create the illusion of depth and perspective, thereby imparting a sense of three-dimensionality.
Charting eight figures in various poses, Cambiaso used pen and brown ink for this artwork. Each figure is composed of basic geometric shapes to represent different body parts. This methodical approach of structuring the human anatomy shows his experimentation with the abstract and the figurative, which was forward-thinking for his time.
By the 1570s, when this drawing is believed to have been done, Cambiaso was putting more emphasis on the use of drawing as an autonomous art form, rather than as a preparatory step for painting or sculpture. This shift is substantiated in "Studies of Foreshortened Male Nudes," as it shows a complete study of male forms, endowed with both academic interest and artistic merit. The drawing serves to reflect Cambiaso's continuing contribution to the development of Italian Renaissance art, as well as giving valuable insight into the artist's working methods.
