Liggende kvindelig model 1931

"Liggende kvindelig model" is a 1931 etching by Danish artist Alfred Simonsen (1906-1935). The artwork, housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a female nude lying on her side, rendered in a raw, expressive style. The figure is drawn with gestural lines, creating a sense of movement and sensuality. The background is rendered with a network of short, horizontal lines that evoke a sense of depth and atmosphere. This work exemplifies Simonsen's exploration of the human form and his mastery of etching techniques, creating a powerful and poignant study of the female body.
