"Male Nude; Arm; Bearded Man" is a drawing by the Italian Renaissance master Michelangelo Buonarroti, showcasing his exceptional skill in depicting the human form. Michelangelo (1475–1564), renowned for his sculptures, paintings, and architectural works, was also a prolific draftsman, and his drawings are highly valued for their insight into his creative process and artistic genius.

The drawing, executed in pen and ink, is a study that typically would have served as a preparatory work for a larger composition, such as a fresco or a sculpture. It features a robust male figure, a common subject in Michelangelo's oeuvre, reflecting his fascination with the expressive potential of the human body. The figure is often characterized by its dynamic pose and the detailed rendering of musculature, demonstrating Michelangelo's deep understanding of anatomy, which he honed through dissection and the study of cadavers.

The inclusion of an arm and a bearded man within the same sheet indicates Michelangelo's practice of utilizing single sheets of paper for multiple studies. Artists of the Renaissance period commonly used this method to conserve materials and to compile various ideas and observations in one place. The bearded man may represent a separate study, possibly for a different project or as a character study.

Michelangelo's drawings were not widely disseminated during his lifetime, as they were considered personal tools of his trade. However, they have since become highly prized for their beauty and as records of the artist's creative process. "Male Nude; Arm; Bearded Man" is representative of the intimate and immediate nature of Michelangelo's draftsmanship, offering a window into the mind of one of art history's most revered figures.

The drawing is part of the collections of the Teylers Museum in Haarlem, the Netherlands, which holds one of the most important collections of Old Master drawings in the world, including works by Michelangelo, Raphael, and other Renaissance artists. As with many of Michelangelo's drawings, this piece is an invaluable resource for scholars and enthusiasts seeking to understand the artist's technique and the development of Renaissance art.
