The Great American Nude #13 1961

"The Great American Nude #13" (1961) by Tom Wesselmann is a bold and graphic depiction of a nude figure. The image is fragmented, composed of simplified forms and bold colors, characteristic of Pop Art. The figure is partially obscured, leaving room for the viewer's interpretation, while the patterned bedspread and the glimpse of a cityscape in the background further add to the work's visual intrigue and commentary on American consumerism and popular culture.
