The Two

Anders Zorn

National Gallery of Art

This print depicts two nude people, a man and a woman, shown from head to toe. Both people are standing upright on an uneven, rocky landscape, looking out over the scene with their bodies facing slightly towards the left. The woman is in front, and she has light skin and short, dark hair. The man stands behind her with a hand on her arm. He also has light skin and dark hair neatly combed back, along with a dark mustache. Their bodies have been created with short, fine lines, and there is not much detail in their facial features. The background features a natural landscape with rocky, sloped terrain and patches of dark grass under a clear sky. The dark lines of the print are on tan paper.
