The Model Session (La Séance de modèle)

Alexandre Lunois

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white drawing of a nude woman seated on the floor in a room. The woman, positioned on the right side of the image, sits on a geometrically patterned rug with her back to the viewer and her head slightly bowed. A white cloth is draped over her left shoulder and back. Her right leg is extended, while her left leg is bent at the knee. In the background, a man sits at a table on the left side of the image, working on a piece of paper. The room features a couch with a patterned fabric behind the woman, a shelf above it holding various objects, and a fireplace on the right side. The walls are adorned with a wooden paneling design. The artist's work, titled "The Model Session" or "La Séance de modèle," presents a scene of an artist and his model in a domestic setting.
