More about this artwork

This painting, "Nude from the Back" (Nu de dos) by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, created in 1917, features an intimate and gentle portrayal of a seated female nude observed from behind and to the side. The woman is depicted sitting, her body turned slightly to show her profile while she glances over her shoulder. Her expression is soft and contemplative, adding a serene and introspective quality to the work.Renoir's brushwork is loose and fluid, emphasizing the play of light and color on the contours of her body and the soft folds of the fabric on which she sits. The background is executed with energetic, impressionistic brush strokes that suggest a lush, almost dream-like setting, using a palette rich in warm tones of gold, pink, and blue. The use of these colors enhances the sensuality and vibrancy of the scene.The painting is characteristic of Renoir’s later works, where his focus was often on feminine beauty and form, depicted with a combination of tenderness and a celebration of the figure in its natural state. The texture of the paint and the visible brush strokes create a lively surface that invites the viewer’s eye to linger over the details of the composition.
