EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable artwork of Kenyon Cox, an influential American artist from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Titled "Seated Male Nude: Study for Science - Iowa State Capitol" this piece was created in 1905 using graphite on laid paper, which has been squared with graphite. Kenyon Cox's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his pencil, as he skillfully captures the human form in a seated position. The male nude figure exudes strength and grace, displaying a sense of classical beauty that is reminiscent of ancient Greek sculptures. The study for "Science" was intended to be part of the decorative program at the Iowa State Capitol building. It demonstrates Cox's mastery in depicting anatomical accuracy while infusing it with a sense of artistic expression. The use of graphite lends depth and texture to the drawing, enhancing its visual impact. Cox's work often explored themes related to mythology, history, and allegory. In this particular piece, he celebrates science as an essential pillar of human progress and knowledge. As we admire this print from Liszt Collection today, we are transported back in time to witness Kenyon Cox's artistic brilliance firsthand. His ability to capture both physicality and emotion through his drawings continues to inspire art enthusiasts around the world.
