Francois-Andre Vincent (1746-1816): Standing Academic Male Nude, ca. 1770

*
One of my favorite sellers on eBay France recently posted this beautiful example of an academic Male Nude study by a well known French Neoclassical painter, Francois-Andre Vincent (1746-1816). Vincent is well represented in Museums around the world. His father was an artist also (a miniaturist). The price is a bit out of my league right now but it is still a superb example of 18th century academic art.
