A painting of a male nude, standing on a pedestal in a sculpture garden. He is standing in front of a hedge. On both sides of the painting, traditional sculptures on the other side of the hedge are partly visible. The man is facing the viewer, but the overal representation is part front view, part rear view. The switch between front and back occurs across a diagonal from the upper left corner to the bottom right corner of the picture. His look is somewhat puzzled: what happened? Well, when you paint or draw a frontal view of a standing male nude, the private parts can be too distractive. They tend to take up all the attention. I did not want to use drapery or strategically placed greenery, etc. So I decided to play around with the anatomy and give you both front and back, but without the distraction.
