This ink drawing, "Reclining Nude Leaning to the Left, Right Arm Supporting Torso," depicts a nude female figure in a simple, linear style. The figure is rendered with minimal detail, emphasizing the contours of the body. The pose is dynamic and expressive, suggesting a moment of repose and introspection. This drawing is typical of Mark Rothko’s early work, which explored themes of figuration and human form. The artist, known for his later abstract color-field paintings, exhibited a strong interest in the human figure during his early years.
