About this work

A seated female nude is rendered in white chalk and dark line on a warm brown paper ground, her body turned three-quarters away with one leg drawn up and an arm resting behind her. The loose, sketchy handling leaves highlights of the paper showing through, emphasizing the figure's gesture and form. This work is attributed to Arthur Bowen Davies and is catalogued as a chalk on paper drawing, c. 1920s.
