This anatomical illustration reinterprets a detail from Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux’s 19th-century sculpture Ugolino and His Sons, focusing on the expressive hands and wrists of one of Ugolino’s sons. Using white charcoal with pen on toned gray paper, the drawing examines both the surface musculature and an imagined skeletal framework beneath.
