Victor-Rene Livache (1872-1944)(Atelier Livache): Standing Nude Ephebe

*
This morning I bought this pencil and gouache study of a nude ephebe (directly below) which comes from the Atelier Livache (Victor-Rene Livache 1872-1944). Livache at one time was the Director of the École régionale des beaux-arts de Rennes (Regional School of Fine Arts in Rennes, France). His studio was responsible for many decorative works including murals, frescoes, and paintings in public buildings throughout France.
