SANDOW IN HIS 20's

This photograph shows Sandow flexing his bicep, but perhaps more importantly, displaying his overall symmetrical physique. The pose is typically Sandow in style, in that he did not "force" his musculature to bulge, instead, presenting his beautifully chiseled development in a purposefully relaxed and easy style.

The photo was taken in London by Van Der Weyde, one of the first to photograph Sandow in high quality and professional studio poses.
