Anatomical figure – écorché

3D Model

Sculpted by Pierre Franqueville (Pietro Francavilla, Petrus a Francvilla), the statuette is one of the three models recorded in the collection of the Jagiellonian Library as early as 1783. Pietro Francavilla (1547–1615) was a Franco-Flemish sculptor who worked in Italy.

Écorché models were widely used by artists to practice drawing and to improve their knowledge of the human body.
