"Nu au fauteuil" (c. 1885 - 1890) is a pastel drawing by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, known for his Impressionist style. The artwork depicts a nude woman seated on a chair, her back to the viewer, and she is in the act of pulling up a white garment. Renoir's soft brushstrokes and delicate use of color capture the sensuality and femininity of the subject, reflecting his signature style. This pastel drawing exemplifies Renoir's mastery of depicting the human figure with grace and naturalism.
