This reference pack is a deep dive into academic figure drawing, built around the traditions of classical art education. Featuring over 1160 carefully staged male poses, the set focuses on balance, proportion, contrapposto, anatomical clarity, and expressive yet restrained movement — exactly what’s needed for serious drawing, painting, and sculptural studies.

The model is captured in the tradition of the Repin Imperial Academy of Arts, carrying forward the legacy of academic realism rooted in the teachings of Repin and the classical European school. Each pose is designed with an emphasis on structural logic, weight distribution, and clean silhouette, making the pack ideal for long studies, anatomy breakdowns, gesture practice, and master-copy style exercises.

With neutral lighting, minimal distractions, and a variety of standing, seated, leaning, and supported poses, this set serves as a reliable foundation for artists seeking academic precision — whether you’re studying classical drawing, refining realism, or building strong figurative fundamentals grounded in centuries-old artistic discipline.
