Zittende vrouw 1880 - 1932

"Zittende vrouw" is an etching by Emil Orlik, a German artist, created between 1880 and 1932. The print depicts a woman sitting in a relaxed pose, clothed in a light garment. Orlik’s signature, rendered in a fluid line, is placed on the lower right corner of the etching. The artwork, measuring 199 mm in height and 158 mm in width, captures a moment of intimate repose and showcases Orlik’s skilled mastery of the etching technique. The soft, tonal values of the print, achieved through the manipulation of lines and textures, contribute to the overall sense of intimacy and sensuality. This etching embodies the aesthetic sensibilities of late 19th and early 20th century Europe, blending realism with a touch of Impressionism.
