More about this artwork

This painting by Auguste Rodin, titled "Nude Female Figure Holding Left Foot," captures a delicate and intimate moment expressed through the anatomy and posture of the subject. In this image, we see a female figure bent over, her body gracefully arched as she holds her left foot with her right hand. The figure's pose suggests a moment of self-attention or perhaps stretching.Rodin’s handling of watercolor and pencil on paper adds softness and fluidity to the depiction, emphasizing the gentle curves and musculature of the female form. The brown and subtle orange hues provide a warm, lifelike quality to the subject's skin, while the background remains muted with washes of lighter tones, keeping the focus largely on the figure itself.The sketchy, almost unfinished lines add a sense of movement and immediacy to the work, a characteristic often seen in Rodin’s studies where the dynamic gestures of the body are explored. This piece beautifully illustrates Rodin’s mastery in capturing the human form and his profound understanding of physical expression.

Rodin was born into a poor family. After earning a living through sculpting decorative stoneworks, he entered art school. He then applied a craftsman-like approach to his work and modeled the human body with the naturalism that latterly became his unique style. Considered as the founder of modern sculpture, Rodin's original works clashed with predominant figurative sculpture from traditional themes of mythology and allegory since he celebrated individual human physicality.
