About the Item

Work on canvas he work depicts a nude woman reclining on a sofa, fusing classicism and modernity. The canvas, with its sober, controlled palette, juxtaposes flesh tones with green and brown drapery, accentuating the contrast. The woman's expression, both calm and introspective, instantly captures attention, while her posture confers an aura of confidence and vulnerability. The minimalist background highlights the central figure, transforming the work into an intimate study of the female form. The precision of the line and the finesse of the details reveal the artist's technical mastery, underlining a quasi-photographic approach while retaining a painterly essence. The painting's authenticity calls into question beauty, reality and perception. The emotion it arouses offers a unique visual experience, prompting reflection on identity and timelessness.
