Emile de Vries - Standing nude - Sold

This beautiful artwork, titled “Standing Nude”, is a masterful brown chalk drawing by Emile de Vries. The work shows an elegant lady in a subtle half-turned pose, with her back and buttocks prominently in view. The soft lines of her half-bent arm partially cover her breast, while her half-long hair falls subtly along her shoulder. The brown chalk used shows a fascinating variation in tone, with some parts taking on a gray undertone, adding depth and atmosphere to the work.

The artwork is professionally framed with a passe-partout in a refined light green-grey hue, and the frame itself is made of light gold-coloured aluminium, which gives it a classic look. The whole measures 67 x 52 cm, while the artwork itself is 40 x 28 cm. The back of the frame is equipped with hanging systems and two stickers: one from “Van der Linde Inlijteraar” and a patent sticker “BartH 8-94”.
The work is in very good condition, with only minor signs of use that testify to its history. It will be carefully packed and shipped insured to ensure quality. Pick-up in Amsterdam is also possible for buyers who prefer personal transport. A valuable addition to any art collection.
