Framed Nude Drawing Study by Harriet Rosander de Tourtchaninoff, 1940s, Sweden

About the Item

Framed sketch by Swedish artist Harriet Rosander de Tourtchaninoff (1912-1965), likely created in the 1940s. This artwork is a study of the female form, where Rosander de Tourtchaninoff emphasizes expressive gesture and natural curvature over fine detail, capturing the body’s fluid lines and graceful posture. The drawing is mounted on a warm-toned textile backing, which enhances the beige, aged paper and adds depth to the composition. The rustic wooden frame, painted in a soft gray with a distressed finish, complements the sketch’s vintage character. The piece has a raw, authentic quality, highlighting the artist’s direct approach and the timeless quality of figure studies in classical art. This piece is in good vintage condition, showing signs of age and use. The paper has naturally yellowed over time and exhibits some wrinkles, but these imperfections enhance its overall aesthetic, giving it an almost sculptural quality.
