Anonymous German Artist: Standing Male Nude - "Enlightenment"

*
Kunsthandel Norbert Thiel, Berlin has recently listed this nice unsigned, but dated 1900, color pencil drawing of a standing male nude with the pine cone topped staff symbolic of "enlightenment" on eBay Germany. The pine cone has been used throughout history as a symbolic representation of human enlightenment.

Unknown 19th Century French School: Female Nude

*
A seller on eBay France has recently posted this nice late 19th century French School painting of a female nude. If I hadn't broken the bank on that last male nude painting I just bought I would make a stab at trying to own it.
