Lambert Sigisbert Adam, French 1700-1759 Bust of Amphitrite, C.1725 Terracotta Dated 08-20-2002. With Pencil on Paper. Original Size 6" x 8". Amphitrate was the wife of Neptune, god of the sea and her tiara of coral pearls, and shell signifies the dominion over the ocean. This drawing is a result of my study of European Sulpture at The Art Institute of Chicago. This is the first work of my study of sculpture. The original sculpture can be seen in the European Paintings(1600s-1700s) section on the second floor at the Museum. It took me about half an hour to do this and gave me a chance to take a closer look at a great master piece. |

Aristide Maillol, French 1862-1944 Chained Action, C 1906 Bronze Wirt D.Walker Fund 1955.29 Dated 08-20-2002. With Pencil on Paper. Original Size 6" x 8". Those who have visited The Art Institute of Chicago will remember this sculpture which draws the attention of almost everyone. This helped me study the sculpture of human body and also effect of the light and shadows on the sculpture. It took me about half an hour from start to finish. |

Chauncey Bradley Ives (1810-1894) Jephtha's Daughter, Marble 1874 Dated Sep-17-2002. With Pencil on Paper. Original Size 81/2" x 11". Jephtha's daughter depicts a character from the old testament book of judges. An Israelite leader engaged in war against the Ammonites. Jeptha promised that if God assured his army victory, he would sacrifice whoever met him upon his return home from battle. For audiences of the day this work represented a form of tragic female bravery; an innocent victim who was virginal, obedient, and ultimately unrewarded. Those who have visited the European Paintings and Sculpture gallery at The Art Institute of Chicago will remember this sculpture. I drew the back view of this sculpture. The original sculpture is such a great master piece, that would not stop me study and draw just one view. Planning for more study of this one in coming weeks. Probably I should also draw both front view and side view. Check here for the side view that I did on the following week. It took me about an hour from start to finish. |
