Nude Male Sculptures
In the tradition of Greece and Rome and the Renaissance, and
echoing the work of classicists like Frederic Lord Leighton in
Great Britain and modernists like Auguste Rodin in France, the
collection brings together bronzes, porcelains and other sculptures
that feature the male nude.
- Some reflect the Beaux Arts tradition, such as the
Drummond bas relief plaque showing an idealized nude artist
and model by Attilio Piccirilli
- Some show the influence of Art Deco, such a nude
man walking two lions by A. Ouline
- Most reflect the idealization of the male figure,
such as Ferdinand Lugerth's Stonelifter in bronze, showing
a nude youth at work
- Some
of America's finest sculptors depicted nude males in bronze
medals and plaques, including Walker Hancock, Donald De Lue,
Tait McKenzie, John Flanagan, Rene Chambellan and Adolph Weinman.
