André Dunoyer de Segonzac

Artist, French, 1884 - 1974

The image depicts a male figure in a crouched position, with his knees bent and elbows resting on his knees. His head is tilted downwards, resting on his forearm. The drawing shows the profile of his face with minimal detail, focusing on the contour of his body. He has short hair drawn with simple lines and is shaded to suggest volume and muscle definition. The figure is depicted nude, with no clothing details. The background is plain with no distinct features, and there is text in the lower part of the image, potentially a dedication or note by the artist.
