Sitzender weiblicher Rückenakt 1891

"Sitzender weiblicher Rückenakt" (1891) by German artist Leo Putz (1869-1940) is a striking nude painting depicting a woman seated with her back to the viewer. The figure is rendered in a naturalistic style, with visible anatomical details and a sense of physical presence. The loose brushstrokes and muted palette contribute to the intimate and contemplative atmosphere of the work. Putz's painting exemplifies the exploration of the female form in late 19th-century art, often characterized by its honest and unidealized representation of the human body.
