About this work
A nude woman with long auburn hair sits on a grassy bank, knees drawn up and arms wrapped around her legs, gazing off to one side. Silvery willow fronds hang down at the left while dense dark foliage closes in behind her, and a still pond spread with round lily pads and open white water lilies fills the foreground below.
Deep forest greens and near-black shadow dominate the background, against which the figure's pale, warmly lit skin stands out in smooth, carefully blended modeling. Soft light falls across her face, shoulder and thigh, leaving the rest in a hushed, dim glow, while the water lilies' pale petals echo the highlights on her skin, lending the whole a quiet, contemplative mood.
