**Thomas Eakins (1844–1916)
-- USA
Thomas Eakins is the painter of bodies that do things rowing, wrestling, studying anatomy and his method reads like field research married to empathy.
He brought scientific rigor to the study of motion and musculature but never let the work become cold: his subjects remain human within the study. Eakins’ paintings honor labor and training; the male body in his oeuvre is shown as earned, worked, and honest.
To paint like Eakins is to observe with clear eyes, to value anatomical truth, and to depict movement as evidence of life.
