Item Details

An expressive Modernist mixed-media drawing depicting a reclining female nude within an abstracted landscape setting.


Acquired in France and originating from a late 20th Century artist’s sketchbook, the work combines confident draughtsmanship with a sophisticated use of colour, gesture and form. Executed in charcoal, pastel and coloured pigments on paper, the composition is characterised by fluid contour lines and softly modelled passages of ochre, grey, black and muted red. The reclining figure is surrounded by loosely rendered organic forms suggestive of trees and foliage, while scattered rounded shapes evoke tropical fruit, creating an atmosphere of warmth and Mediterranean light. The artist’s economical treatment of facial features and expressive handling of line lend the work a distinctly modernist sensibility, balancing figuration with abstraction. The composition recalls the tradition of European studio drawing, where direct observation is combined with a decorative and highly personal visual language.


Presented behind glass in a contemporary black frame and ready to hang, this is a striking and atmospheric work that offers both artistic presence and strong decorative appeal.
