Double study of standing male figure associated with Evelyn De Morgan’s oil painting ‘The Marriage of St. Francis and the Holy poverty’
Artist: De Morgan, Evelyn
Double study of standing male figures associated with Evelyn De Morgan’s painting The Marriage of St. Francis and the Holy Poverty. Evelyn De Morgan (née Pickering), 1905. Tonal study in charcoal, pastel and conté crayon on brown wove paper. In the 19th Century the relationship between artist and model was often questioned and the artists studio was considered to be a hotbed of sexual frisson and moral degeneration. In contrast to that presumption, the unclothed and draped model in this study is depersonalized and disconnected from the viewer by his anonymous features and the artists sole concentration on anatomical form and draped body.
