Nude 1953

Milton Avery’s *Nude*, a black and white woodcut print created in 1953, features a simplified, yet expressive female figure lying on a patterned surface. This work reflects Avery’s signature style of bold contours, flat planes of color, and minimal detail, characteristic of the American Modern Art movement. The contrasting dark and light tones create a sense of depth and form, while the rhythmic lines and abstract patterns contribute to the overall sense of harmony and balance in the composition.
