This small, restrained nude of a brunette woman is treated on the basis of a confrontation between white and black in a blue-green atmosphere: the white of the skin of the naked body, the vase and the sky; the black of the hair, the fabric, the stockings and the shoes;
The head lowered, the hair raised, the eyes closed and the redness of the face compose a modest model whose bare upper body is centred in an oval.
The model’s crossed legs, hands and cloth form another oval. The black cloth and the white hands are at the intersection.
The eye travels in a figure of eight and over the bare chest, the leaves themselves are in unison with the hands.
Only the coloured spots of the small bouquet allow the viewer to escape this hypnotic female nude.
