A 1773 Paris treatise on artistic anatomy and proportion, published by Charles-Antoine Jombert and attributed to Peter Paul Rubens, written for students and working artists. Its engraved plates show nude male figures in standing, striding and twisting poses, some with draped cloth, drawn in fine outline with light shading, offering a designer clear models for posture, muscle structure and the weight of a body in motion.
