TITLE: •02-Reclining Nude (bronze sculpture) - MATISSE
DESCRIPTION: Alluding to traditional representation:
? Looks traditional in subject matter – reclining female nude
Undermining it:
? not idealized, takes liberty with what he’s emphasizing and/or simplifying and abstracted.
? The controposto is exaggerated
? hip juts forward
? face is minimally defined just to give you an idea.
? It’s the overall muscular turning in space that he’s trying to depict.
