Female Nude 1923

"Female Nude" (1923) by Othon Friesz is a painting of a reclining nude woman, rendered in a loose and expressive style. The figure is depicted in a relaxed pose, resting on a plush armchair, and the artist uses bold strokes and contrasting light and shadow to create a sense of volume and form. The painting's simplified lines and gestural brushwork are characteristic of Friesz's mature style, which drew inspiration from both Impressionism and Fauvism.
