Nude. William Etty. 19th century.
William Etty. Nude. Early 19th century. The figure of a naked girl, in a free pose, is placed diagonally and occupies a central place in the work. The heroine is highlighted. She, as if after bathing, casually poses on thrown off clothes, in a park landscape. The romantic nature of nature, a picturesque English park, is combined with the temptation of beauty. And it sounds like a bodily embodiment of the idyll so popular in sentimentalism at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. On the back of the canvas are stamps of the owners and auction numbers.
Dimensions of the picture without a frame: 45.5x57.5 cm.
