Seated Nude with Still Life / Unknown Artist, (Mid-20th Century)
Seated Nude with Still Life / Unknown Artist, (Mid-20th Century)
A full-bodied, unidealized nude posed in a painterly domestic stillness.
A female figure leans with quiet solidity against a draped table, her form sculpted from thick, decisive strokes of flesh-toned impasto. Behind her, the composition balances the warmth of a mahogany dresser against the cool shadows of a hanging cloth, while a compote of fruit offers a formal counterpoint to her pose. This is not a study in seduction but one of mass and structure, a powerful statement of inward presence.
