"The Victor," Ottilie W. Roederstein, 1898.
Swiss-German Roederstein (1859-1937) was primarily known for her portraits, although it's unknown if this was meant to be a portrait of someone, or just a symbolic work.
By this time in her career, Roederstein was a successful artist who had achieved an education and had exhibited both in Europe and the U.S., notable for a woman at the time. I wonder if perhaps this is an expression of her personal success....but perhaps not.
Still, it's a nicely composed piece; the model is almost like a sculpture, and it's overall an interesting mix of classical elements with modern style. And his determined pose makes him memorable.
From the Städel Museum, Frankfurt.

"Ask Me No More," Lawrence Alma-Tadema, 1906.
Dutch-born, British by choice, Alma-Tadema (1836-1912) was a specialist in sun-drenched scenes from Greek and Roman myth and history...here we have a scene from the story of Pyramus and Thisbe, fotbidden lovers who inspired Romeo and Juliet...and whose story was treated in burlesque fashion in Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream."
Alma-Tadema's work was extremely popular in his time; he was prized for his mythical themes and for his solid draftsmanship. However, he fell from favor after the Victorian age ended, but regained popularity in the late 20th century.
He remained solidly in the category of Academic art, never falling in with the Pre-Raphaelites, Impressionists, or what have you, although he was an influence on the Symbolists. He was meticulous with detail, especially with architecture, and sought to paint it as accurately as possible.
From a private collection.

This remains one of the most effective drawing course imo, it’s interesting how it faded out. Thankfully it seems to be making a come back these days 🥰
“Vincent van Gogh, who worked for Goupil for a while, learned to draw from it, and Picasso used it when he was a student at the Barcelona Academy. So did multitudes of lesser-knowns.”

Alright here it is. Everyone’s rite of passage drawing in the long road of academic painting/drawing. Many more to come… I hope, so much more to learn…trying to be diligent about practicing drawing even though the colors and painting part is my favorite 🥹
Something wonderful about reading biography of artists - even the best worked hard at drawing, there’s no way I can skip this.
