EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Edgar Degas' "Study after Agasias of Ephesus, Gladiator Borghese". The image showcases a powerful male figure, his muscular physique on full display as he strides forward with confidence. Degas' meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this walnut-stained drawing on paper. The subject's nudity adds an element of vulnerability and rawness to the composition. With his back turned towards us, we are invited to admire the intricate contours and shadows that define his buttocks and rear. This study explores the human form in its most natural state, celebrating both strength and sensuality. Measuring 19.9x16.8 cm, this intimate artwork is part of a private collection, making it even more exclusive and sought-after. The photograph itself was expertly captured by eChristies Images, showcasing Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving fine art for generations to come. Degas masterfully pays homage to Agasias of Ephesus while infusing his own unique style into this piece. Through this study, he invites us into a world where beauty meets strength and vulnerability intertwines with power – a testament to the timeless allure of classical artistry.
