Repose by Red

SOLD

A brilliantly executed modernist nude study, painted in oil onto board and dated 1974.

This painting depicts a seated nude woman, turned away from the viewer, in a modest and contemplative pose.  The background is a deep, rich reddish-brown, which contrasts with the softness of her skin tones and the light fabrics. The brushwork is expressive but controlled, with broad, textured strokes defining the body and cloth.

The style leans toward Impressionist realism, with simplified anatomical forms and attention to light and texture over intricate detail. The mood is quiet, introspective, and gentle, emphasizing human vulnerability and softness.

This work captures a tender, respectful portrayal of the female form, typical of early-to-mid 20th century figurative art.

The painting is presented in a well crafted wood frame, which further enhances the painting’s classic and timeless feel. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some scuffing and small losses, as shown.
