About this work
A statuesque nude figure fills the narrow canvas, one arm raised to grip her own bowed, dark-haired head, which is turned away in shadow; a straight dark rod stands upright beside her leg, and at her feet a bearded severed head rests atop a heap of crimson drapery.
The body is modeled in warm coppery pink flesh tones against a mottled grey-blue ground, with a raised, textured surface on the hair and drapery suggesting built-up paint; the contrast between the smooth idealized body and the rough encrusted passages, plus the blood-red heap below, gives the scene a somber, unsettling weight.
