This is an excellent collection of six original nude sketches by Alexandr Egorov, a Russian artist. The collection exhibits six pieces done in charcoal and graphite exhibiting several nude women and one woman posing in a dress with an umbrella. Artists of many era’s have turned to the study and sketching of naked bodies due to the complexity, aesthetics, plasticity, form, sensuality, poetic lines, grace and the personification of God in man.
