Album 2, Leaf 8

The figure studies compiled on this album leaf appear similar in size and relation to one another, so one could easily think that this leaf functioned as a collection of possible figural “prototypes” for various postures. Only on closer inspection does the diversity of the models become apparent: some are statues, others reliefs.
