AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rudolf SCHLICHTER (1890-1955) - Front nude female figure - Signed original drawing
Superb original study drawing by Rudolf Schlichter, a major figure of German Expressionism and the New Objectivity movement (Neue Sachlichkeit).
This work, depicting a frontal female nude, perfectly illustrates the artist's style: raw realism without idealization, a direct and deep gaze, and a great mastery of chiaroscuro to model the body's volumes. It is an intimate and powerful piece, typical of studio studies of the period.
Technique: Drawing (probably black chalk or charcoal) on paper
Dimensions: 25 x 16.5 cm
The work is sold in its original state, “as is.” The drawing itself (the lines and shading) is very well preserved and retains all its graphic strength. However, the antique paper shows signs of aging.
A wonderful opportunity to acquire an authentic work by a great German master. This drawing will make an excellent candidate for professional cleaning by a graphic arts restorer, which will reveal its full potential and value, or can be enjoyed as is for its historical charm.
