“Chest of Man” is an artwork created by Paul Delvaux in 1929. This piece is executed using oil on canvas, adhering to the stylistic tendencies of Expressionism. The dimensions of the artwork are 100 x 100 cm, and it belongs to the portrait genre.
The artwork depicts a central figure of a man who is bare-chested, with subtle features and a contemplative expression. The background reveals a pastoral landscape with other figures dispersed throughout, blending into the natural environment. The use of muted colors and delicate shading adds a soft, almost dreamlike quality to the scene. The overall composition and stylistic choice emphasize emotional depth and introspection, characteristic of the Expressionist movement.
