"A Study of a Male Nude" is a painting by the English artist William Etty, renowned for his depictions of nudes and history paintings. Created in the early 19th century, this work exemplifies Etty's dedication to the academic study of the human form and his mastery of flesh tones, which became a hallmark of his artistic style. The painting showcases a male figure in a classical pose, reflecting the influence of the Old Masters and the neoclassical tradition that was prevalent during Etty's time.

William Etty (1787–1849) was one of the few English artists of his era to focus almost exclusively on the nude figure, drawing both acclaim and controversy for his unabashed celebration of sensuality in art. "A Study of a Male Nude" is representative of Etty's commitment to life drawing and his rigorous training at the Royal Academy Schools, where he honed his skills under the guidance of Sir Thomas Lawrence and other prominent artists of the period.

The painting is notable for its realistic portrayal of the human anatomy, with careful attention to muscle tone, posture, and the play of light and shadow on the skin. Etty's work often sought to elevate the nude to a subject of serious academic study rather than mere eroticism, and "A Study of a Male Nude" serves as a testament to his technical prowess and his philosophical approach to art.

Throughout his career, Etty faced criticism for his focus on the nude, but he remained steadfast in his belief that the human body was a worthy and dignified subject for high art. "A Study of a Male Nude" not only reflects Etty's personal artistic convictions but also contributes to the broader discourse on the role of the nude in art, a conversation that continues to resonate in the art world today.

The painting is held in various collections and has been exhibited in numerous galleries, contributing to the ongoing appreciation and study of William Etty's work. As an example of his dedication to life drawing and the academic study of the human form, "A Study of a Male Nude" remains an important piece within the oeuvre of one of Britain's most controversial yet influential painters of the 19th century.
