The phrase "life drawing" refers to the artistic practice of depicting a nude or partially clothed model in a realistic way through the medium of drawing. The term "life drawing" emerged during the Renaissance era, during which artists moved away from the traditional Byzantine style of depicting figures based solely on memory and imagination. Instead, they began to focus on creating more realistic and anatomically accurate depictions, and they achieved this by studying and drawing from live models, rather than relying on painted or sculpted copies. This method, which allowed artists to observe the model's proportions, movement, and posture in real time, became known as "life drawing," and has remained a fundamental part of art education and practice ever since.
