Otto Scholderer's "Sitzender weiblicher Akt (_Quellnymphe_)" is a graphite drawing depicting a nude female figure seated on a stool. Created between 1882 and 1883, the artwork showcases Scholderer's mastery of anatomy and light, highlighting the figure's form through subtle shading. The model's relaxed posture and thoughtful expression, perhaps suggesting a nymph emerging from a spring, contribute to the piece's captivating realism and artistic depth. Currently housed in the Städel Museum, this study exemplifies the artist's dedication to depicting the human figure with both accuracy and emotion.
