PIERRE-AUGUSTE RENOIR
Femme nue assise.

Soft ground etching, 1906. 188x150 mm; 73/8x57/8 inches, wide margins. A very good, clean impression.

This subject, one of 8 etchings that Renoir (1841-1919) made of a solitary female nude, exhibits the soft modelling of the classical female form captured by Rembrandt in his "Woman Bathing her Feet at a Brook" (see lot 69). Delteil 12.
