The background palette is deliberately muted that obscures the paintings on the wall behind him, creating a horizon line at the middle separating the gray-green upper against a burnt sienna below. His pale body is not only a figure study of human anatomy but one of shadow & light as the muscles are illuminated. Overall the minimal composition is captivating for its tense juxtapositions. Framed by a gold gilt molding with thin reeded design. Signed on the front with additional text on the back to place in context of Rome circa 1911.
