Etude de nu (Study of a Nude)

Félicien Rops

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a small, rectangular etching in the center of a larger sheet. The figure in the etching is reclined with indistinct facial features and long, loose hair, wearing a wide-brimmed hat. The background has a rough, hatched texture close to the figure, against an otherwise blank, light-colored sheet.
