EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Anatomical Study: the Human Skeleton, in Contrapposto" created in 1870 by John Bathe. The artwork, rendered with pencil, pen, ink & wash on paper, measures 70.5x49.5 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The meticulous attention to detail is evident as individual bones are numbered and their names listed to the left of the composition. This piece serves as an invaluable resource for students studying anatomy during that era. The human skeleton stands tall and proud in contrapposto pose, a classical stance where weight is shifted onto one leg while the rest of the body relaxes naturally. This position adds dynamism to the otherwise static subject matter. Bathe's skillful execution brings life to this scientific study through his precise rendering of each bone structure. His expertise as an anatomist shines through every stroke, capturing both artistic finesse and scientific accuracy. Through this photograph from eThe Ms Gallery in London, we can appreciate not only Bathe's talent but also gain insight into how medical knowledge was disseminated during the late 19th century. As we gaze upon this remarkable drawing today, it serves as a reminder of our intricate inner workings and pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to unraveling the mysteries of human anatomy.
