"Cubist Nude, " Important Drawing by de Chirico

About the Item

This important drawing, clearly inspired by the work of masters like Picasso and Matisse, was created by Giorgio de Chirico, renowned surrealist and one of the 20th century's most important painters. Drawn in pencil and embellished with watercolor, this portrait of a voluptuous nude is notable for its strong forms, gorgeous colors, and the Matissean leaf forms on the fabric of chair and ottoman. (With the frame, the drawing is 25" high by 21" wide.)
