Albrecht Durer
Painting: Female Nude from Behind
1495 Brush drawing on paper, 32 x 21 cm Mus?e du Louvre, Paris This female nude seen from behind records D?rer's interest in human proportions during his first Italian journey. The attributes, staff and cloth, suggest that this freely drawn nude study was created from a model. The firmly sketched shape of her body forms a charming contrast with the glazed, freely swinging cloth. The head and cloth are executed with gentle brushstrokes and clearly show a spatially plastic relationship between the figure and pictorial space.Artist:D?RER, Albrecht Title: Female Nude from Behind Painted in 1501-1550 , German - - graphics : study
