Lying by the Rags 1990

"Lying by the Rags" (1990) is a painting by Lucian Freud, a renowned British figurative artist known for his realistic depictions of the human figure. This painting, now housed at the Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art in Oslo, Norway, features a nude woman lying on a wooden floor partially covered by white cloth. Freud's signature meticulous brushwork and attention to detail are evident in the portrayal of the woman's form and the textured surface of the floor, creating a sense of raw vulnerability and intimacy.
