Studies of Lovers Embracing (recto) and A Suppliant Figure (verso). Artist: James Jefferys (British, Maidstone 1751-1784 London). Dimensions: Sheet: 13 3/4 × 22 in. (34.9 × 55.9 cm). Date: 1779.Drawings by Jefferys were long attributed to artists such as James Barry or John Hamilton Mortimer. The discovery of a signed work in an English library helped to clear up the confusion, and Jefferys is now recognized as the chief creator of the "Master of the Giants Album," a dispersed group to which this sheet once belonged. The artist's controlled expressive style demonstrates admiration for Italian mannerists such as Baccio Bandinelli, whom Jefferys studied in Rome during the 1770s as part of a circle centered around Henry Fuseli. Images on both sides of this sheet allow us to compare two distinctly different types of execution--dynamic linear pen work on the recto with more broadly brushed ink and wash on the verso. Couples and individual figures express a range of intense emotions, but th

Heads of a faun and a young woman (Les têtes d'une jeune femme et d'un faune) Jacques Louis David French ca. 1792-96 This vibrant and enigmatic study of two heads was made in the 1790s, following the French revolution. A faun, swarthy and furtive, is drawn in dark and vigorous marks. Just behind him, and rendered in more delicate strokes, is the head of a sleeping woman, tilted back, her lips parted. David made such drawings throughout his life, especially in his late years, but their function is unclear. Are they memories, studies, or simply explorations of expression View more.
