Lot description
Brown ink, 12,7 x 12,1 cm, laid paper with illeg. watermark (some spots, hinge on verso).
Interesting drawing, possibly inspired by Da Vinci's Vitruvian Man. While the style is close to a sheet attributed to Rembrandt in London (British Museum, inv. Oo,9.76), several examples in Amsterdam (Rijksmuseum, inv. RP-T-1930-42), London (British Museum, inv. 1895,1214.100) and New York (The Met, inv. 2003.557) demonstrate the subject was very popular among the Dutch master and his pupils.
