Seated Female Nude 1893 - 1923

Søren Onsager's "Seated Female Nude" is a striking portrayal of a nude woman, executed in a loose and expressive style. The painting, created between 1893 and 1923, showcases Onsager's ability to capture the human form with a sense of both intimacy and vulnerability. The figure's pose and gesture suggest a moment of contemplation, with the woman seemingly lost in her thoughts. The artist's use of thick, impastoed brushstrokes adds a textural richness to the surface, further enhancing the tactile quality of the work. The painting is currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, where it stands as a testament to Onsager's artistic prowess and the enduring power of the female nude in art.
