"A Seated Male Nude, His Legs Crossed" is a 17th-century oil painting by the Italian artist Vincenzo Dandini, a prominent figure in the Florentine art scene of the Baroque period. The painting is notable for its depiction of the human form, showcasing Dandini's skill in rendering the anatomical details and the play of light and shadow on the subject's musculature. The work is characterized by its life-sized scale and the naturalistic portrayal of the male figure, which reflects the influence of classical sculpture and the Renaissance tradition of studying the human body to master its representation in art.

The subject of the painting is a young male, seated with his legs crossed and his gaze directed away from the viewer, creating a contemplative or introspective mood. The pose and the treatment of the figure suggest that the work may have been intended as a study for a larger composition or as an exercise in the academic tradition of drawing from life, which was a common practice among artists of the time to refine their skills.

Vincenzo Dandini (1609–1675) was part of the Dandini artistic dynasty and was known for his religious and mythological scenes, as well as his portraits. His work was influenced by his uncle, Pietro Dandini, and other contemporaries such as Pietro da Cortona. "A Seated Male Nude, His Legs Crossed" exemplifies Dandini's adeptness with the human figure, a central preoccupation of Baroque art, which sought to express movement, emotion, and drama.

The painting is held in various art collections and has been exhibited in museums, contributing to the understanding of Baroque artistic practices and the development of figure painting in Italy. It serves as an important example of the academic approach to art education during the Baroque era, emphasizing the importance of life drawing and the study of classical sources.
