Study for the Nude Youth over the Prophet Daniel (recto) — Michelangelo Buonarroti

Original Scale Edition

Michelangelo Buonarroti, Study for the Nude Youth over the Prophet Daniel (recto), 1510–1511. A twisting male nude in red chalk records Michelangelo working out one of the ignudi for the Sistine Chapel ceiling.

Original artwork size: 24.3 × 34.3 cm (W × H)
Palatine presentation: 30 × 40 cm Classic Frame, portrait.

Most art-print shops offer the same image in a choice of Small, Medium and Large sizes. We take a different approach. For each edition, we begin with the recorded dimensions of the original work and reproduce the complete image at that scale, preserving its proportions and avoiding enlargement, reduction, cropping or distortion.

Frame finishes
Black, White or Natural.

Paper & glazing
Enhanced Matte with either Perspex or Moth-Eye glazing.

A considered presentation for every work. We assess each edition individually and recommend the frame, paper and glazing combination we believe best complements the work. Our recommendation is preselected when the page opens, but the choice remains yours.

Recommended presentation: Natural frame + Enhanced Matte + Moth-Eye. We recommend a natural frame to sit quietly with the beige paper and red chalk. Enhanced Matte supports the drawing’s dry, paper-based character, while Moth-Eye glazing helps reduce reflections over the fine hatching.
