"Académie d'Homme" is a notable work by French Cubist painter Roger de La Fresnaye (1885–1925). Created during a period when de La Fresnaye was exploring the boundaries of Cubism and incorporating a more classical approach to figure painting, this work exemplifies his unique contribution to early 20th-century modern art. While the exact date of creation for "Académie d'Homme" is not well-documented, it is known that de La Fresnaye's most significant contributions to art occurred in the years leading up to World War I and in the few years following his military service, before his health declined.

The painting features a male nude, a common subject in classical art known as an "académie," which art students traditionally studied to master the depiction of the human form. De La Fresnaye's treatment of the subject is distinctive for its synthesis of Cubist fragmentation with a more traditional, volumetric portrayal of the human body. This combination reflects the artist's interest in reconciling modernist abstraction with the heritage of French neoclassical and Renaissance art.

"Académie d'Homme" is significant not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its representation of the shifting ideologies in art during a time of great social and political change. De La Fresnaye's work is often characterized by a sense of solidity and structure, which stands in contrast to the more ethereal and fragmented forms found in the works of his Cubist contemporaries. This painting, with its clear nod to both the past and the present, captures the essence of de La Fresnaye's short but impactful artistic career.

As a member of the Section d'Or group, which sought to expand the possibilities of Cubism, de La Fresnaye's contributions to the movement were marked by his individual style, as seen in "Académie d'Homme." The work is an important piece within de La Fresnaye's oeuvre and offers insight into the broader narrative of Cubism and its intersections with other artistic traditions. The painting is held in high regard by art historians and critics and is considered a valuable example of the dialogue between traditional figure painting and avant-garde abstraction in the early 20th century.
