Alfred Grévin (1827–1892) was a prominent French caricaturist, illustrator, and sculptor known for his keen observations of the human form. In this watercolor sketch, “Seated Nude,” circa 1880, Grévin employs fluid lines and soft tonal washes to capture the essence of the figure. This work reflects the artistic explorations of the late 19th century, where the human form served as a subject for both technical skill and expressive freedom. Grévin’s diverse career and innovative techniques contributed significantly to the popular art movements of his time, highlighting the intersection of caricature and fine art. Framed by Galerie Meissner, Zürich.
