Nu de profil 1925 - 1927

"Nu de profil" is a 1925-1927 print by French artist Georges Rouault. It features a nude female figure in a seated pose, rendered in a dark, expressive style typical of his work. Rouault's prints often explore themes of human suffering and the fragility of existence, and this piece reflects the artist's fascination with the human form and its capacity for both beauty and vulnerability. The use of strong black lines and contrasting light and dark tones evokes a sense of intensity and emotion. This print is an example of Rouault's distinctive style, characterized by its expressive brushwork, bold colors, and often religious symbolism.
