This drawing, rendered with a delicate touch and masterful use of chalk on paper, presents a young woman in a state of serene repose. The woman is depicted lying on her stomach, her gaze soft and slightly turned away from the viewer, suggesting an intimate, unguarded moment caught in time.Boucher's skill in capturing the soft curves of her figure and the smooth texture of her skin is evident. The warm tones of the red and white chalk contribute to a lifelike portrayal of flesh, imbuing the subject with a vibrant, almost ethereal quality against the neutral background.This artwork is a fine example of Boucher’s ability to blend realism with idealistic beauty, making "Jeune femme allongée" not just a study of the human form but a celebration of femininity and grace.
