It is likely from 1926 and depicts the Greek mythological figure Galatea, a sea nymph, standing nude in front of a fountain. Maillol is known for his simplified, classical style, which is evident in the figure's strong contours and the emphasis on form. The drawing's simplicity and focus on the female form aligns with the artist's appreciation for the human figure.
