Meditation by Richard Taddei (2003).
Many of Richard Taddei‘s paintings of male figures draw upon Classical and other references so encountering the Flandrin pose in his work isn’t too surprising. I really like the semi-abstract works of which Meditation is an example.

This is a good one!
It surprises me there aren’t more painted versions around. Most of them are photos.
